Any chance of getting pics of the intercooler? Curious about the fitment of it, behind the bumper. I didn't see anything about the front tow hook being relocated, so I assume the intercooler doesn't impact it? If that is the case, I assume it is smaller than some other kits and I wonder if it is sufficient to get the job done. Can anyone comment?

I think you are going to lose the front tow bar... But the FI bar fits? I'm sure someone can confirm or correct me here since I don't actually have a BP kit... Just a fanboy.

The intercooler is rated for 1000 hp. It's plenty big. The front crash bar is removed when the intercooler is installed. If you want a tow hook you'll need to come up with your own solution.

That's good to know. Out of curiousity, how much of risk is it to not have the front crash bar in place? I assume the intercooler would become the first point of impact then.. is there anything else to really worry about, beyond that?

The biggest problem is not having a place to put the tow hook.
