Yeah it would fit and you wouldn't have to cut the bumper cover. Won't really look cool, but it will work.

do you think it doesnt look cool because of the laser bumper or the evo 8 fmic? i plan on spraying my ic black, but i dont want it or the pipes protruding from below the cover. personally i like the laser bumper, the plymouth logo makes it look factory on my colt and hemi colts car and the westside colt both look hawt with it on there.

evo 8 end tanks will mess with you a little.

could be better endtank wise for sure, but could it be cheaper at the same/more effectiveness?

custom endtanks are also a viable options, but at that point, i might be farther ahead to get an ebay core that will use the space and my money more effectively.

Here's a pic of one installed on a 1g, just to show you how ugly the endtanks are. I think they installed his upside down though, not sure.

point taken. those endtanks suck. wonder howthey would look if it were a flat blck bumper and flat black fmic though. probably not so bad.

what i would like is a fmic with same side exit/entrance. j pipe to lower hole, back out the top to the throttle body. the turbo outlet and tb entrance are on the same side of the car why not the ic entrance/exit? i dont see too many people go this route though and im not sure why. the evo ic is just convenient and around but not really the best option, maybe not even for the money.

now that im reading about vertical flows, they seem to be a better ic. considering the space and situation, i may just go that route.

The evo intercooler can easily support 400whp.
