Hey guys. Just picked up a really nice 88 lx notch. Right before I bought the car, the previous owner installed a vortech blower and all the fuel system upgrades to support it. The car has not had its SCT chip retuned since the install, so I'll be taking it to get that done in 8 days. The car came with a CX racing front mount intercooler kit, complete with all tubing and clamps. However, I just don't see how the intercooler is going to fit without doing some serious trimming of the front bumper cover. This car is so clean that I really hesitate to do anything that will impact the car's beauty from the outside. All pictures I can find of this kit going on a fox body is of a GT, which as I recall is quite a bit more spacious between the radiator and the lower portion of the bumper cover. Can anybody send pics or advice on whether or not this will fit an lx without serious modifications? Truth is, there blower only has the pulley for about 6-7 lbs of boost and I don't absolutely have to install the intercooler. Just trying to be smart, as I will be driving this car everyday. Thanks.
