You gotta play with it dood lol Manifold might need little customization, the compressor section might have to be unbolted from the turbo housing and clocked a bit then bolted back to prevent hitting block, the downpipe might need to be customized as well depending on thickness (i had to heat mine up and hit it with a hammer to creat a sort of flat spot so it wouldnt hit firewall, and you might need to trim some parts of your bumper support to let the IC fit. i made custom brackets for the intercooler it was super easy to do.
