im trying to piece together a custom turbo kit for the R and was wondering if any of you guys would know the dimensions to a great fitting intercooler. I will probably be going with spearco.

 

depends on HP, not looks .

1) Measure the opening in the front of the car.
2) Decide how much you want ot cut out.

Yes, we both know that, which is why I bought a large Greddy IC to replace the stock one that came with my old Drag III kit.

Which is why I referred to opening up the nose of the car!

 

since the R is a DD...im only thinking of 7psi which would probably put me into the 260-270whp range with some tuning. How much did you have to cut out of your front end for the greddy IC...or would that be overkill for what im going for? I just dont want to hack away my front end

 

honestly you can put a big one on without cutting anything .mine is 32x10x3 and i coulda got it on without cutting.
