Intercooler locations

Turbo 3rd genners, where have you placed your intercoolers for optimal cooling and ground clearance? COuld you have a front mount while retaining the factory hood? I'd like to see how it looks if you''ve got it. thanks!

Have a look at the sticky above for a dual setup. Most people have them parallel with the radiator and some have them parallel with the ground with a scoop.

I went and looked under the car today, there is a good deal of space to front mount it and remove the fog lamps or to mount it facing down and fabricate a seperate airdam for it. The airdam gets plenty of air to the radiator with the front mount setup. I need to get a tape measure out and get some gross dimensions for the location.

Jeff,
I check my mail every few hours throughout the day - SPD@Skulte.com (or flying_monkies@skulte.com, or any other @skulte.com, since it all gets defaulted to me for 90% of the skulte.com emails...). I haven't received an email from you in a few weeks, and don't have any real spam filtering going on (save for about 5 email addresses in the procmailrc that is sent to dev/null).

Here's another front shot, so this post isn't totally w/o content

andris i sent you three separate ones...........

zerotosixtyV8, look to supercharger intercoolers as well since esentially you put them in the same places.

i've seen a few like andris, and the others are either twins that are located in the very far front corners or there are a few like my buddy maniac on this site that has his almost directly on top of the intake.
