We currently offer a front mount intercooler kit for the fbodys! We have either a 3" thick or a 4" thick intercooler option, and we have a large selection of couplings that can be used to fit right up to your setup depending on your MAF and throttle body.

I have seen eBay (OBX intercooler) setups that appear to be relatively easy to install. From what I understand, the piping fabrication is what you have to worry about. You'd also need to pick up the proper wastegate. When I priced it out, with decent parts, it came to roughly $1000, and that's with good hookups for the piping. The intercoolers only run $300 or less... wastegate would be $300-400, then you've got clamps and piping.
