Default How large of an intercooler will fit behind 93 bumper

I am turboing my 93 accord and want to know if any of you have fit an intercooler behind the stock bumper with out cutting it, or re-routing A/C lines. Thanks

How much boost do you plan on running? If its not going to be too much, you really don't want the largest size possible, as this will increase time for the turbo to spool up and make boost.

I am only going to run 7-8 psi at first and will probably go with a johnnyracecar 5 inch intercooler. It just looks REALLY tight behind that bumper for any intercooler.

It IS very tight behind there. More than likely you'll have to hack at the bumper support no matter what size it is.
