That intercooler looks like a copy of the Wagner Tuning Competition one sold mostly in Europe/UK.

It turns out it is, which is what I found out when trying to figure out why it wouldn't bolt in like the ebay ads claimed.
Seems some guys have ground the beam for clearance, but thats all I've found on actual install details.

If you would like to avoid making camber adjustments from the camber plate, install camber strut bolts. These cars are caster & camber limited and you will likely need 1 or both strut bolts to be camber bolts to achieve the front camber you will need for the track with camber plates. The stock bolts are TTY btw.

Since im snowed in, im taking the time to build a 3.5 inch cold air intake for this. Mostly because I want the noise and looks. And the battery box is gone. And....

I paid 5 bucks for this k&n setup off a 90s mod motor Ford truck that was headed to the crusher. It's a good starting point with the large filter and nice bellmouth.

Needs more tweaking, but that'll work?
