[urq] 3B installation procedure

[Brandon Rogers]

This is probably a stupid thought, but oh well it won't be my first....

Is there a way to cut a few inches off the 944T IC so that you can keep the
A/C, and keep the alt on the passenger side, but still end up with an IC
significantly larger than stock?  If you can cut off the end tank to modify,
couldn't a skilled guy just as well cut off the end tank and then chop off a
few inches of the actual IC?

just thinking...

I would like to have lower intake temps but am not ready to give up the idea
of having A/C - even tho mine is not even working right now.....
