I'm using a dsm t25, on a custom fab manifold for my sohc b6. I plan on using a small universal 27x6x2.5 eBay intercooler. But I don't want it just hanging out, and I'm drawing a blank on hot to fit it behind the plastic bumper.Im not driving a Festiva because I'm poor. I drive a Festiva because i want to!

If you haven't already purchased the intercooler, look at how the stock gen1 dsm intercooler is mounted. It's behind the fender liner and you don't see it at all!.97 Aspire w/K03 turbocharged b6 SOHC

^ Thank you! Even though I didn't ask for the help, i'm definitely going with the srt-4 intercooler. I thought it was too complicated.91 Festiva BP Autocross/Track/Rallycross hopeful
