behind the front bumper support--its tight but it does fit--then just ever so slightly angle it backwards.
It has a built in bung for a temperature sensor at the bottom--which is nice to have. Also cut the top half off the front bumper support--it is internally separated by a solid sheet of metal, for more airflow across the top of the cooler and that support acts like a large heatsink

heres a little better pic of the way its mounted and what the front support looks like after cutting--since that picture i have extended the cut all the way across. My secondary radiator is mounted on the front side of the same beam--its a 21X7 cooler. So it is not very tall.
I now have my intake outside the engine bay too. Cutting that support bar gave me much more room so I could use a regular AEM filter.

catback is ordered
oil leak in relo kit is fixed
GOODbox gauges are installed
Turbosmart bypass to blowoff valve is up next. The inlet/outlet diameters are different that the one I was running so I am making some silicon reducers today to mate with the 1" in/out on the blower kit. I have some proper ones ordered for arrival next week.
