Default lenny's front mount intercooler installation








cutting of part of the bumper was necessary. the temperature sensor had to be placed in a different spot as well. the vacuum line to lenny's valve had to be cut. he is running txs hyrbid.
edit - now he is running t3h forge
the stock shifter counter weight hit the cold pipe, so lenny removed that shit.

all in all, this was a really fun mod to help with. help from haltech was also given and appreciated. and dash screwed a few things in also.

enjoy the pics.

Good to finally meet you Rod... You too Dash.

Philly is basically our... bitch... He is are labor mutt and we use him to do the work we prefer not to do, since well.. we are in our late 30s. It was nice to drink beer at 9am and laugh at Philly.

Glad you got the leak sorted out on the coldpipe joint.

That cobb setup is REAL nice. To bad (as far as I know) us MS6 guys don't have space behind the radiator to run IC piping like you guys do (I am guessing that's where you are running the piping since both hot and cold pipes go down where the stock air box was).

The pipe actually runs behind the radiator at the bottom. Its a tight fit when the pipe shoots upwards towards the TB but crossing the hot pipe.
