They're a direct replacement for stock ICs? No hacking at *all*? I didn't know that . . .

When I installed mine, I had to hack the rad support a little bit.

We had to trim back the hoses on mine, but that's about it. Much cleaner install than others.

Default when mine where installed there was not one ounce of hacking chopping shaving anything.

used stock hoses. the only modification was done to the stock ic shrouds... there is a trim around them that needed to be removed.

Default odd.

i wonder why... or what the difference was. did he remove the lock carriage / rad support or leave it on?

i seriously am not joking, the two IC's slid right in, i witnessed it.
