aye it is possable. The only problem you will run into is intercooler sizing, but if you dont mind doing about a days worth of cutting and sanding to your bumper support anything will fit. I fit a 18x9x3(core) IC behing my stock nose and still have my support relitivly intact. One last thing, if you have the power steering fluid cooler(the hoop of tubing in front) just remove the brackets and tuck it behind the support for the hood latch. It isn't pretty but you'll never see it anyway.<p>[ April 21, 2003: Message edited by: RiceRocket666 ]</p>

The biggest problem that you will have is downpipe sizing as it is difficult to produce a 3" downpipe and still clear the a/c. Of course this all depends on how you orientate the turbo.
