It's going to get tight once you add the tanks and plumbing! Either way- THAT ROCKS!

It's still a money pit and space waster. I'm living on value brand cheerios and pb+j so I can buy parts. There's 2 bikes and 2 or 4 cars that I need to paint but can't till this is out of the garage.
The plan is to trim the bumper supports back another 2 inches or so. Then were going to try to bend and weld a tube to them so I still have some support in front. With the intercooler angled like it is in that pic it should hopefully fit. It's a tdi passat core that I got out of a dumpster for free. Just had busted plastic end tanks and was twisted alittle.Last edited by shorestiva; 03-24-2010, 12:02 PM.Better Than Nothing Racing

What turbo are you running? With that big of an intercooler you have to have an equally big turbo.Current cars:
1993 Ford Festiva 5-Speed - Festiclese III - Cousin of the Banhammer - "The Jalopnik Car"
1984 Toyota Cressida - 2JZGE Swap, Turbocharged.
2013 Mazda Mazda2 - Exhaust and Wheels (the daily)
