Oh I was under the impression the ac rad had to be removed to make space. ? I have a v2 sti and I think the alternator has to be moved to where the ac pump is ?

Or is that wrong ?

With the right kit you shouldn't have to move anything other than inner wing air box, which is removed (that's most kits tbh)

You only need to relocate the alternator if you're rotating the inlet manifold.

Air con got ditched when fitting the FMIC on mine as the pipes from the air con pump wouldn't clear the hard pipe to the throttle body.
