Message As you can clearly see, there is no possible way this bracket will bolt on. Please note that the bracket is bolted to the intercooler using supplied bolts in both holes on the face of the intercooler.


Ignore the newspaper, since these parts had been sitting on the floor of the garage I wanted to make sure no bugs or other objects made home in my intercoolers.

You should be able to see that nearly the entire connector (whatever you want to call it) is blocked by the chassis. The bracket is in place, holes in bracket lined up with the threaded holes in the chassis. The supplied bolts for the intercoolers are holding the bracket on the face of the intercooler. So since so many people say this is a bolt on installation and they didn't have any problems.... can anyone tell me what in the hell is different about my car?

I just gave up and installed them without the bracket and without the ducts. I know I loose 20%, approx, efficiency but I no longer care. I'll worry about it later when I can hand craft some ducts out of aluminum sheeting.
