It's just an awesome coincidence that that hole in the right front fender matches up with the one in the Supra.
I actually took a dremel and enlarged that hole in order to be able to work with the T-Bolts a little easier in that small space.
It easiest to work around that hole if you take off the front right tire and the plastic shieldding around the fender.

They do come out at some ****ty angles, but I used 4-ply couplers and T-Bolts to hold them down, and the only boost-leak I had was in the fender because I was too lazy to take off the front bumper when I installed my IC.
Boost-leak has been fixed, and the piping works so no complaints.
Matter of fact, because of how strong the couplers and t-bolts are, and how snug the pipes fit, I was able to suspend my intercooler on just the inlet/outlet, without mounting it to the bumper support.
It's in there rock solid.
BTW...the couplers are from http://hightempsilicone.com/
Guy's name is Jim.
Great guy.
Communication is not the best but shipping is really fast if you order by phone and confirm he has everything on-hand.
Product is absolutely stellar.
I has one of the couplers in a spot where it was rubbing against a sharp edge for a month so I was 90% sure there was a hole.
I took it off and found that it has only cut through the first ply and was stopped by the fabric inside.
Sorry about the off-topic.....back to Xutech's excitement!

Is this Ken's car? He is the only person I know around NYC that is waiting for to install his toyomoto kit to be installed because he was waiting for a manifold to be shipped from Japan.
Enquiring minds want to know
