Max size intercooler without modding the bumper

Hello

As the title says, im after some measurements for an IC.

Whats the max size that fits under the bumper?

The bigger Greddyt ype that fits behind the bumper partially - does that require any mods?

they all fit in the bumper... I think you mean the front crash bar.
The greddy intercooler requires you to trim the crash bar.

Anything talling than a 6-7" IC will require trimming the crash beam. There is plenty of clearance all around from the actual bumper.

Yes, sorry

I did mean the crash bar.

Some are designed to fit under it, others fit behind it

I'll take some measurements. I'm assuming you want clean air for the whole thing?

Are you leaving room for other coolers?

It doesnt have to receive 'only' clean air. Just mostly.

I just want to know which way to go - either modify the crash bar or fit a really wide one underneath it.

But thanks tho!
