yeh you need to cut the opening for it. I saw it done this one time when this guy was getting a HKS IC on his S14. If you can show me a pic i can tell you where the hole was cut.

im almost positive that you have to cut a hole in the battery tray... move your battery to the trunk or get a slim battery.

go to www.srswap.com for more install help

that helps a lot! thanks. but ive also seen the IC pipe going on the side of a normal battery. it seems as if it is right on the side of the radiator. like on ka-t.org. the guys with the 1995 240. some go across the clutch fan and some seem like right next 2 the radiator. also how many pipes will i need. the IC kit i got on boostdesigns.com is 4. is that right?

ay any 1 have pix of what the oil lines look like n how many. because i got a couple of steel braided lines that look like one will fit the 1 side of my turbo but the otha line dosent seem to fit on the otherside of the turbo. there is a blue label on 1 side and a red label on the other but both lines i have are not the same. ones thicker than the other and the ends on them are different.
