I had it... 3 days it would have been done. Ran into a couple things i couldn't do much about. The radiator is lower on my car so the intake tube can fit neatly under the hood. Because of that.. and the position of the sway bar (its up front just above the front crossmember)... my fan hits it.Also the lower rads inlet/outlet needed to be cut off and a 90 put in its place. So i am on a mission to find a new fan... I also needed to notch out the frame a bit for an intercooler pipe. No big deal.. i hole sawed it.. then welded a brace on the back side to compensate for "weakening" the structure. It came out looking like Speedtech sent it that way. I also did a few other things while i had it apart. Exhaust wrapped the down pipes.. change a dump tube...

Couple pics of my frame notching... nothing to exciting.. this was before paint of course....
