Could put your air2air in the front bumper. My SSS i notched the frame rails and boxed them in. Then put a 31x12x4inch a2a. Works really well. I even put some 7inch dual fans on the a2a at one point thinking it might help in town. But it is pretty efficient with out the fans.

And you have an awesome fabricator to build your charge pipes already too!! It looks like. So placement won't matter.

That was a 31x18x4 "trick" intercooler but it looke like it came from ebay. It was to tall and wide. I dont want to cut up the core support so i am going with a treadstone tr1225 4.5 core. Should fit nice in the grill.

Is that an eco boost turbo?

This is going to be a killer truck. Big, fast, and kick ***!
