I installed mine on the core support tight above the air deflector, works great!

What if you have a CAI? Such as Fast Toys Ram Air?

Where would the next best place be?

KraZy: WILWAXU's car HAS a Whisper Ramair setup on it! Please look at his pics on his site. They CLEARLY show the cold air induction piece, and how to install the cooler with the cold air induction piece in place! I don't care if you're running FTRA, Whisper, SLP, SuperSucker---whatever, his method will work out just fine.... One thing--maybe WILWAXU will reply just what brand and size transcooler he's running, because it seems to fit up in there real good----John?? BTW, GO TAMPA BAY!!
