I will be doing the same setup on my GT. Are you going to mount it into the bumper support? If so, you are going to need a metal cutter to get through that thick metal. I plan to mount mine from the radiator support, which doesn't require any cutting, except in the fender area.

i was planing to cut the support .

mounting it from radiator support will the intercooler get enuff air if mounted there ??

you need a torch, cutoff wheel or plasma cutter to cut the support. then i used some snips to cut the hole in the inner fender area. other than that just regular hand tools
