Use the search function. Many have intercooled these and written posts.
I fitted a top mount and other parts needed from the later intercooled engine. A body lift was needed for this

Front mount will get full of mud ... top is best if your going offroad

Credit where credit is due! The build is not mine. kbushnz is the builder. I bought it from him as he upgraded.
I have not installed this intercooler yet. but I do also have the glassed piece of pipe in the build thread. I also have a partly completed modified rocker cover, so that it will fit without a body lift.
I am in Wellington
send me a PM if you are interested.
Cheers
Chris
