#4629, "Star Intercooler & Driving Lights Question"




          

I heard that with the Star Stage 2 that there are issues with the intercooler & driving lights as far as space alotted. I've got PIAA 1100x driving lights, can I keep them or will I have to 86 them? Also, How many of you guys with turbo actually bolted the turbo on without modifying any other engine components? I really need to know what to expect as far as any other types of modifications I will need to do. Obviously I am looking toward the Star Stage 2 setup, and would like to get around 275-300 hp.

Thanks guys

If you get the star stage two you will have to get rid of your fog lights. They dont fit with the intercooler. Atleast that is what I saw last night when I saw my first star kit in person.

Ya, he's right, your fog lights won't fit. The IC pipes go right through the stock fog light location. It depends on how deep your PIAA lights are though. You still might be able to fit those?? I'm not sure. But as far as any other engine mods...no, there's none. It's a COMPLETE bolt on.
