I was wondering if any of you have had any experince relocating the intercooler to an front mounted position? I really want to come up with a more cost effective solution than putting a vent in my fender well or spending 1000 on a new intercooler and piping. If we can come up with some sort of intsall guide I'll gladly host it and keep it updated on things...

Alot of people get the TT fender lines, or just custom them on there own. I have seen some topics on this before, try to search for them, but I wouldnt move the IC its in a good place to get cool airflow.

moving the stock ic to the front like a FMIC is a waste.....you'd have to custom make piping that would create more pressure drop than a FMIC kit and you'd still have the ****ty small IC with plastic end tanks.....
Save your money and get a IC mister kit, a SMIC, or a true FMIC like the ATP.
