See this is why I told you to relax earlier. I was not in any way referring to you mordeth; however, what people are refering to as a side-mount intercooler(aftercooler) can also be called a front-mount because it does still mount in the front of the engine the only difference between said side-mount intercooler and said nose-mount intercooler is the size and centering(between the eclipse and evolution that is). If I'm not mistaken the nose-mount is centered in the nose of the car and is substantially larger where the side-mount while still remaining in front is positioned to the driver's side of the vehicle.

Well Mordeth I believe you answered your own question there. Hobie said he doubted that the Evolution would come to the US missing the Turbo Charger intercooler. Nowhere in there did he say that he might have heard that it would be missing it. His statement was purely oppinion nothing suggestive of him thinking for some reason it wouldn't have one.
