cradle spacers, they lower the sub frame. but 1.5 inches is a lot.

Yup,and the SD hood has less clearance than a stock hood.

^^^And this.

I ended up putting a stock hood on. then I cut a hole and put a scoop on.
11-14-2014
put some spacers inbetween the hood and where the hood bolts on, it will give you a bit more clearance, might be enough after you do the cradle spacers

reason #5876769303064897839023035 why I think A2W intercoolers are a joke..........
11-15-2014
for me the is reason #1, I know I wont have enough space so I wont even bother lol

I'm assuming this is another suggestion that E85 makes intercooling obsolete. E85 is a great, easy shortcut to ponies, granted.... but intercooling still has it's place.
11-14-2014
mine fit under a stock hood no problem....
11-15-2014
Ill see if i cant get it with the spacer but i really doubt it.

There are intercoolers on lots of cars. Before you bye, look up your car/hood. Chances are some one has installed on and has some pictures. If cannt find info.
1). Remove hood insulation (been asked if it was really nexessary)
2) put plummers putty on vacuum nipple on top of supercharger.
3) gently lower and or shut the hood.
4) putty will show how much clearance you really have.
As far as a joke....I drive mine daily for the last 6 years.

And once again e85 isn't easily available everywhere....
11-15-2014
havent found any info about it yet hopefully something turns up i dont wana cut this hood
11-15-2014
Run hoodless
11-15-2014
1-1/2. Is that at the front of the car?
What car and hood
11-15-2014
Yes the front of the hood its an SD hood on a 2000

The point where it hits is going to be half that distance.
Where does it hit throttle
Body?
Is this a 2.25" thick intercooler?
Is this a gen 3 or gen 5 supercharger?
What throttle body?
If it's a 5 have you turned TB adapter upside down?
11-16-2014
Throttle body adapter hits i took it off just to see if it hits wtihout it and yes the supercharger hits then. Its a gen 5 charger and north star throttle body.
The core is only 2inches
