Does anyone have install pics of a FMIC mounted behind the grille in front of the radiator? Also just from the front so we can see how it looks through the grille? Im sure others are interested as well

Those intercoolers won't fit behind the grill in your truck with out totally hacking up the core support and moving the radiator and stuff. They only fit the 04+ up there. Mounting them below the bumper works really well and you don't need to have a lot of opening in front of it. It creates kind of a vacuum behind it sucking the air though it especially if you leave the plastic skid plate on it. This is all the opening I have and it works GREAT!
