Default srt4 intercooler on 92-95 civic hatch

i got a srt4 intercooler for free today and i was wondering if it will work with my b16 turbo set up. i heard something about modifying the end tanks but is there any way that you can use it without modifying it?any help appreciated

Have you made any measurements? You would need to know the size of the intercooler as well as the inlet and outlet to know if it would fit the current piping.

i know i will have to cut the bumper support or remove it and maybe part of the radiator support/front clip. instead of the end tank ports racing toward the wheels they turn back toward the motor. is there a way i can make it work without modifying the end tanks?

Do you already have a turbo setup on your car?

You would have to measure the inlet and oulet of each to see if it would fit without mods, as well as where the charge pipes line up with the SRT intercooler.
