    Trying to figure out where I can mount my intercooler in my 4th Gen Firebird. Pics are appreciated. Was trying to figure out how to keep it under the dash but it doesn't seem like it will fit. Any input is greatly appreciated...

    It will be driven on the street and I really want to keep the passenger seat...other than that it really doesn't fit under the dash like I thought it would...

    Have to put it in the trunk then. If you don't want to lose the pass seat and it won't fit up front it's either the trunk or the rear seat behind the pass seat. Thats a lot of piping. what are the dems on it.

    That's a huge bitch....

    How close is it to fitting behind the dash? You could always cut the dash cram it in there as far as you can, but you might need a sticker that says "No passengers taller than 5'2" ."

    It's not so much the dash that isn't letting it fit. The dash cross bar is the culprit. I'm going to attempt to clearance the bar and see if it can sit on the tunnel....but other that that I might have to put it on the floor in front of the passenger seat... :bang:

    How much hp? You can fit something MUUUUCH smaller in there if you wanted 1000-1500hp.
