He has the big one, as do I. they are the same width as yours but just with a few more rows of tubes on the bottom.
I have mine mounted right in front fo the radiator. The inlets and outlets are just wide enough to get around the stock radiator with a little bit of trimming on the radiator side mounts. Fit almost to good really.
I know you guys might not like it, but here engine shot of my rx7. You can see wher the inlet and out tubes are.

I welded in a piece .5" angle iron that runs from left to right that goes under the intercooler. Then the bottom two mounting ears on the intercooler bolt to it. The top fits tight enough that I didn't need anything. It has been in there for a cuple years now and it is working great.

Nice Randy!

Did you mount it where the A/C condenser normally goes?
