[urq] 944t/951 intercooler install

[urquattro at comcast.net]

Hi,
I did this 4 years ago and those are my pics. 

http://home.comcast.net/~urquattro/IC.html

The bottom two pics show how the end tank needed to be re-created - notice the "more than 90-deg" bend which needed to be created. Also see how I added a pipe going up to the factory Michelin Man hose connection. The snub mount was left in place and with the silicone coupling piece you can see on the "up-pipe" in the pictures, the 2.25" pipe lies nicely cradled by the alternator bracket arms. No modification was needed to the outboard end of the IC, just off-the shelf plumbing with AL and silicone pieces.

The only way this will work unless you have an example in a jig is if the person having the thing made is willing to get really dirty with a tape measure and use some creative thinking to make the clearances work. In my case, attempting to convey that info to a skeptical fabricator added to the fun. If your helper is that convinced it won't work, umm...it won't. This is going to be challenging to get accomplished across state lines.

Good Luck!
