Ok, so I got the mod on my car today. I ended up contacting a welder/fabricator to make the pieces (all the rails). He charged me $50 for the 4 rails and the 1 short rail. It might be a good idea for those who don't have the tools for this mod, such as myself.
Seeeeeya, the nibbler was a good idea in theory but not in practice. It ended up being time consuming and not very precise.
The mod went on well except the BPV sense hose. It's very tight maneuvering near the intake manifold. I ended up getting the hose on tight just by pushing it on (with the clamp on). So hopefully that did the trick.
Just wanted to say that I'm a complete noob with cars and tools but this mod was super easy. The intercooler was pretty easy to get off and it was easy to modify as well. I was a little bit intimated by taking off the intercooler at first...but not anymore (its super easy). So if anyone out there that might be intimated by this mod...just try it. It was about as bad as installing my intake.
