2002 wrx front mount intercooler install

[wordwrx]

Hey what's up I'm installing a front mount intercooler on my 2002 wrx tm when it comes in the mail my question is what I need to do to the stock bumper in order to put it back on because I think it needs to be cut and the foglights have to come out please post about this thanks

What kit?

What are your current mods?

The FMIC manufacturer should include the instructions. As already noted the actual FMIC would need to be known in order to help you as they don't all fit/install the same.

It's a Godspeed kit

I hope putting it back together is as easy as taking it apart

I hope the mod list on your page is severely outdated.

Does anyone know where I can get instructions for installing this front mount I'm having some problems

I think the general consensus is that the godspeed kit is ebay garbage and it's probably no wonder you're having problems. I doubt any instructions exist, because I doubt the kit will even fit properly on your car. My recommendation? Get rid of that crap and buy yourself a decent TMIC... you'll improve your performance anyhow.

if you cant figure it out.. option 1) get a hold of someone who does know or option 2) take it to a shop and h ave them install it.

You have the option of selling. I'm telling you... if the mod list in your profile is accurate, then IMO you will have a larger performance gain switching to a quality TMIC. Read the following:

The OE beam needs to be removed/replaced (if the kit included one) or modified
