the two side bolts mount where the 2 rubber drums mount, the top mount needs a bracket made, eh, but it fits =)

That's the metal bar that stretches across the front, right behind the front lip. To get the Evo 8's intercooler to fit you'd either have to remove it or modify it since the intercooler is too tall.
if youve ever taken your front bumper off, you'll know what i mean
plus you'll be able to tell the difference between my photo above and your car with the front bumper off, hope that helps

could u do a write up on how to install it, without removing the crash bar, plus how much do u think u can boost now? maxing out the turbo, don't u think thats a lil too harsh for ur engine?
Ya know.. from looking at that picture, with a little trimming of the under-tray, the stock EVO upper intercooler pipes look like they would also fit in there and line up close to where your throttlebody might end up.. at least with very few modifications.
BTW I took a stock evo8 intercooler and got it to fit on a honda Civic.. so there's obviously a decent secondary market for the spare parts, its only a matter of time before someone devises a header that can utilize a stock Evo Twinscroll turbo on the lancer (Just remember your adjustable wastegate to lower the boost)

THE 5MPH CRASH BUMPER HAS TO BE REMOVED
you could modify the bracket but then the ic will hang too low and you'll tear ir off the first speed bump you go over.
