What intercooler are you using and is intake manifold/throttle body stock?These may be just one of your fitment issues,possibly,depending on your answer.

I am using the stock intake manifold and throttle body and for right now i am using the stock front mount ic. I ordered the AMS front mount ic with the piping but when i recieved the package the front mount was a dinged up so i am waiting for AMS to send me another front mount.

I would recommend waiting on the I/C pipes til your new I/C arrives as you will be very happy with fitment when whole package is installed at the same time.
