Go thru the fender on the driver's side. It's pretty simple.







I run A/C so my 18x12x3 core is offset

Hell no. I only got 291rwhp @ 14psi.

Standard Absurdflow is much better, higher hp and better spool.

Rushin, I really like your set-up. When I do my intercooler I think I will try to duplicate your setup. Esp. since I have AC & PS
