The 2000 Audi S4 drivetrain fits with no major interference issues except where the stock intercoolers mount on either side of the engine. In the 914 this is the location where the "shelf" is located. I was wondering if I can cut the sidewall to the inside of the flare where I planned to mount these intercoolers. Would this significantly weaken that area? I actually would like to cut more than hatched area...

...with an intake (maybe bigger than pictured) to divert air through the intercooler. The question is, will this be sufficient? Should I resize them or find another location (I do want my trunk space)? If need be, I will convert from water to air IC to make it more efficient. It's GOOD to have water cooling available (Eric). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) In that case it may be easier to relocate.
