How big of an intercooler you goin to get? You can't get much bigger than mine and still retain the factory crash pad. Otherwise you will take out the entire front crash pad ( I wouldn't recommend..) and try and fabricate something to hold the front bumper's shape.

Even with mine it took A LOT of time and effort and fabricating of the piping to get it all to fit and not interfere with the bumper. It looks like a lot of room but its really that not that much-

You can also do a tubular K member and A arms., light wieght battery, or battery relocation that will save alot of wieght off the front the car which is where you want to take it from

Starts getting expensive with the tubular suspension junk, but if you do decide to go that route (does save a ton of weight) change ur springs and do ur motor mounts while ur at it. You'll thank me l8r, trust me.
