The TrackDog IC kit like miatamaniac has is interesting... the pipes flow over the radiator and drop down in front of it. There is a metal shelf in front of the radiator on all miatas. I popped my hood and looked at that location, and there is a hole in the metal where I'm assuming the left pipe goes through but its currently filled up by some sort of cylindrical thing with metal fittings - don't remember what it is. But there is no hole for the right pipe - for the Trackdog kit do you have to cut a hole out of the metal for the piping?

No, the TDR intercooler actually moves the entire radiator back toward the engine. There may also be a bit of metal trimming as well, as I recall, but the main amount of room is gained from moving the radiator. That cylindrical thing is your A/C system's dryer.

Thanks
When my greddy kit is up and running, I do plan on a 1.8 HKS kit.
