Default intercooler fitment on ef hatch need help

I recently traded my 97 ej shell for a super clean ef coupe. I have a 450whp e85 turbo build that should be finished during winter. 2 local shops have told me I might have issues running anything taller than a 6" intercooler with the stock bumper. Anyone with experience can u post a pic of ur setup and total dimensions of your intercooler. I'm just trying to get an idea of what will be able to fit with the stock bumper

I had a Precision 600hp rated intercooler on my hatch. 31 1/2" L x 8" H x 3 1/2" D are the measurements on it.



I think I have some without the front bumper on it, but I am not 100% sure, ill have to keep looking.

If you are in the market for one PM me, mines up for sale.

6-8" typically works height wise w/ the stock bumper and minimal trimming
