It was actually quite easy.. I had a rather large intercooler and I traded it for this one... (it seems to be of similar dimensions to a SRT-4 intercooler).. maybe 2.5-3 inches deep, almost 15 inches long from tank to tank, and about 4-5 inches high...

I had to remove a plastic vent piece below the rad support, and then drilled 2 mounting holes in the rebar to suspend it from hangar tabs... and testfitted the bumper... but the bumper needs about 1/4" trimming around the lower vents as it runs into the intercooler...
