How much work is involved in fitting the intercooler? What needs cutting and what bumper can you use afterwards? What intercooler is it and do you need to buy extra pipes or can the exisitng ones be used?

Intercooler was custom made and now i fancy a bigger one! But will wait till i have the turbo on to decided what to do (Anyone want it!). Had to get the front pannel cut flat so it would sit nicley with the front bumper. Pipe work is all samco bends and stainless pipe for the time been till i get some stainless mandrel bent pipes made up. Rick
