I've found 27" to be the widest you can go without having to run piping through the fenders. You might be able to get away with it I dont know.

Your better off buying the kit off ebay with the 27x7x2 ic and 2.5 piping. Myself and gost both used the same kit, and its very nice and easy to work with for the price. You only have to order 3 reducers and clamps also.

and this was a kit as well that came with piping and a SSQV BOV and flanged pipe fur 170 free shipping so would be a little cheaper than the intercooler kit for 159.99 with 45 shipping was just wondering if i could save a few bucks is all..
