^ "maybe you sould search" Priceless!
Cant you do it by removing the undertray. I got mine off from underneath. Why do you have to take the bumper off?

I installed this same setup and had no problems with the install...especially none of the fitment issues you are talking about. Granted I had a lift but still, the pipes were the best fittin UICP that I have seen and they are all stable as well. Might want to look over your install.

some advice and pics...

I got that setup a few months back and I love it. It took me about 4 1/2 hours to do it. At first it was kind of loose, I could jiggle the pipes a lot, but didn't have any problems until a few weeks back I was on the freeway and I downshifted into 4th and floored it about 2 seconds later the lower part of the uicp blew off.(The one to the intercooler). Two days ago I bought and installed a full set of T-bolt clamps and WOW, what a difference, it stiffened the pipes up and it runs way smoother. There are no boost leaks anymore. And yes the filter is supposed to touch the water holder thing. Hope this helps.

Pics without the T-bolt clamps...





and if you would like I can get you recent pictures. just PM me

You have any problems with the filter hitting the ACD resevoir? My filter rubs the linig under the hood just a little bit (looks like yours does too).

no prob with the acd resevoir and these pics are from when it is brand new so if I showed you a recent pic, you would see a black line across the filter because of rubbing the linning.
