Prl intercooler on a 2.0 engine

Has anyone installed one on their 2.0 engine? I looked at the instructions, the bumper beam need to be trim a bit. Wondering if anyone done it and how complicated is it?

any benefits with bigger intercooler on this 2.0 engine? I read that it does help with the heat soak but this is all from the type S.

Just read an installation discussion in the https://www.facebook.com/groups/2GAcuraTLX/ page of Facebook. I had my Acura dealer install the PRL I/C in my A-Spec but they did need to trim the bumper for it to fit properly.

I did saw a post on fb where he didn't need to trim the support but did lower it a bit. Will see if trimming it is easier or try to modify it and lower down is. The bumper seem to be the most difficult part, but seems straight forward with the instruction video. Will be ordering one soon, waiting to see if there is any special promo during black Friday 🤣.
