Nice work, is this a graphics 3d program or an actual CAD program?

You planning to mount the FMIC off the factory rad mount locations?

Thanks man, the program i'm using is SketchUp 8, i can't afford autocad and yes. I'm planning on placing the intercooler where the stock radiator was located. right behind it is going to be a 1" thickness fan and then the mishimoto civic radiator right behind it. I'm looking for how to design the intake plenum.

Just out of curiosity, did you model the car from scratch or find a 3d drawing online?

Go to demonoid.com and sign up...im IT as well and I never used bittorrent, I just relied on sites with downloads...i needed certain programs just for one use and signed up...it has saved my ass many of times...especially when i am doing sidejobs for clients and i need specific software to get the job done...I downloaded AllData with coverage up to 2010 for euro, asian, and domestic...

lol i have no idea how long it took me for the setup but having the dimensions helps hella lot! I got my intercooler from Mishimoto. Once i figures out the overall size of the intercooler, i made a rectangular box. (Basically, a wooden box and started carving away at it.)

I wish I knew some of the 5axis team so I could send some stuff too.

Designing in 3d was something I dropped 10 years ago being I never had access to the milling machines that you could export to.

Hey That has the makings for a really nice Intake!

I was involved in a project for the L Motors to make a similar manifold

I wonder if we should start a seprate thread and start working on it?!

That's some interesting stuff. Civic radiator? I work on a lot of Civic's those radiators are tiny. I would feel more comfortable with a larger rad esp for a turbo K (if that's what your installing).
