Building a custom mount wanted to know what you guys thought of a 28x5x3 i don't want to cut every thing up the 28 is end tank to end tank.

I'm not an expert by any stretch but I'm almost positive you will be fine besides possibly some trimming of the bumper for the piping. When I was looking around before buying my IC I used the MAM core as a template because there was no cutting of anything serious involved. As it turns out, my friend convinced me to get one that is 9" tall and I had to mangle the bumper support hahah. I'll try to get some pics up soon if I can find a pic hosting site.

yeah I would just mimic the MAM or HiBoost. Neither involve any real cutting or moving of parts. the way that the hot pipe runs to the turbo on the HiBoost is throught the hole left by removing the stock side mount intercooler. it then runs over the top of the intercooler and then bends into the hot side. The cold side runs directly to the Throttle body.

Why not just save it on this site? You can upload files and use file attachments easily here.... no need for other hosting sites. (first)

Haha I'm an idiot, I had no idea this site offered free pic hosting. I'll just put this one up tonight as a teaser. I'll start a new post in a few days once I have everything finalized and I think some people might be suprised on some of the fabricating my friend had to do along the way. BTW, welding aluminum with a MIG welder is a BIG pain in the ass.
