intercooler woes.... advice please.....

[WHITE R32]

i have a manual 12/93 r32 gts-t and i am looking to install an intercooler and pipework myself...... this leads to several questions that im putting to anyone who may be able to help me.....

(1) can anyone please tell me the size that most ppl use as far as coolers go without having to take air con bits and pieces etc out.....

(2)can anyone please point me towards pictures or anything that shows where the pipework from cooler to engine runs

(3)my car has a std gts-t front bar etc and what do ppl usually mount the coolers onto

(4)and lastly......do i have to cut and shut or remove the bonnet latch support that is directly under the latch.......

any help would be greatly appretiated.... i am very mechanically minded and im not dumb i just wanna get a few ideas before i get into pulling stuff apart....thanks Jon...... :uh-huh:

You can fit a 600x300x70mm cooler into the front of a 32 without too much trouble. But you probably dont need to go that big.

Loots of trimming of the bumper is required and you need to cut some metal from the base of the bumper support. The bonnet latch dosent need to be modified but you may need to cut the support for it depending where you mount the cooler.

Use 2.5'' pipes, these are the best easies to work with.

For the mount i use the three bolts on the bottom of the front of the chassis where the drip tray usually bolts. This allows you to run a piece of metal parallel with the cooler to mount off of.
