I want to get a front mount intercooler instead of the side mount, but how much will that help? I just basically need the boosted guys or guys who know about it to tell me what would work best with this kit.
If you get too large of an IC, you'll loose boost pressure as it gets to your intake. I think that the side mount will work just fine for this app. It's basically the same thing as a front mount, just not in the middle and a bit smaller. Just be happy you have something cause most premade kits don't come with any type of IC.

I'd try to install it somewhere that air will flow through it. You might consider cutting out your outer holes on your front bumper.

If you need any input, lemme know.

here's some resource

http://www.dseries.com/

http://pub143.ezboard.com/bhondadseries
you meant www.d-series.org
and also check out www.turbod16.com
the turbo does look a bit beat up and so does the manifold.. but it could be a bad picture
you'll need
BOV+ flange
PIPING = go to www.jcwhitney.com
HOSES and T adapters = go to local auto store
SILICONE COUPLERS = NAPA radiator hosing.. about 10-12 bucks a foot :bigok:
CLAMPS = www.mcmaster.com search for t bolt clamps
OIL sender and return line (send line must be 1/8 npst ) go to http://www.fast-turbo.com
a oil return flange for the oil pan http://www.fast-turbo.com/
downpipe = local exhaust shop

well, look for the obvious stuff like, a big hole in the IC and make sure everything is included. make sure the turbo doesnt have much shaft play. other than that, just use your best judgement.
