7" Fmic is too big for 1.8t bumper.. fyi
You have the core upside down, you need to turn it the other way and just cut out some of your bumper support bar.
The core goes the other way because heat rises, then more of the heat spreads out on the core to cool down quicker. If you turn it over you can actually lower the core down so the inlet/outlet sit a little lower.
You forgot to click on the 600 pixel option, you were posting it as a 100.

HAHAHA!!! o man that makes so much more sense!!! wow i feel dumb.. Okay I guess I gotta start over, that sucks. We'll see how it fits after, and the wrx lip hasn't been added yet, thats just how it looks at the moment. we'll see how it looks once I flip it all around, I'll prob have to redo the piping now cause the inlet and out cause its gonna be about 5 inches lower.

Okay the FMIC has been flipped over.. Luckly it didn't require much work as far as new pipes go. The only problem now is trying to get the lower valance to fit with these pipes there. I came up with a pretty good idea with a center spacer. Hopefully this thing doesn't come out half bad.. This will def be something never seen before tho.
Anyone have a stock lower valance I can get? Mine is pretty chewed up now
