Pics! 2.5" IC tubing, Rad dropped but not tilted. IC has angled side tanks with inlet/outlet facing up.

Had to cut support but used mounting plates welded on the 90's to add strength.

what about your hood? Any cutting? is that NB or NA? Where did you pick your intercooler?

An easy way to check clearances is to get modeling clay (I had to go to Michael's, I think, but now I have a four-lifetime supply for $3) and build a little tower of it wherever you're concerned about fitting. Close the hood or whatever, open it back up and measure the clay.
