Yah, I followed his post, stock intercooler came out no problem, but when installing the new intercooler and new boost pipe, that's where the problem came, you have to get the boost pipe at the right angle or else it wont go in. It was stiff as hell hard to turn, we loosened up the clamps that connect the the boost pipe together, there's and end piece that goes to the intercooler, a rubber coupler then then pipe that connects to the turbo, if you dont get the angle correct, your F!!c15ed! We were able to get it in, but that damn c clamp that connects the boost pipe to the intercooler broke......
