90 daytona 2.5
hybrid T3/T4
large intercooler (see below)
greddy BOV
stage 3 fwdperformance computer
grainger valve set to 14 psi
first i had to just get the intercooler mounted:

the core measures 19" x 14" x 3.5" with 2.5" inlets and outlets
the intercooler in question is:
Heat Exchanger
(thanks dodgeboy77!)
Since then ive done the following:
installed piping from turbo to intercooler
installed piping from turbo to air filter
installed greddy BOV
relocated radiator overflow bottle
replaced big battery with small lawnmower battery
removed metal pipe from heater hose to head and replaced with much longer heater hose, to make room for intercooler piping
set grainger valve to 14 psi
parts list:
most of the intercooler/turbo/air filter piping is from an $85 large generic kit off ebay which included various tubing, silicone adapters, and hose clamps. some of the pieces are very large heater hose or silicone adapters from fwdperformance, or steel exhaust pipe. all is 2.5".
the battery is a lawnmower battery from wal mart.
the battery was mounted by cutting the stock battery platform to the size of the smaller battery, riveting in "L" aluminum and steel pieces to hold the battery in place (from home depot), and then using plumbers metal strap and a draw-down bolt (also from home depot) to strap the battery in place. large gauge copper screw-down terminals (i.e. 2ga, 4ga) ARE available at home depot! home depot does NOT appear to carry actual battery wire. they may have 4ga wire but it is very stiff and not ideal for automotive use in my opinion.
a 150 amp distribution block was installed to clean up ALL the battery wiring and make it so there are only two wires going to the battery. this came from MCMASTER-CARR, P/N 9290T11
the BOV is a Type RS Greddy and was $190 from a local performance store
the radiator overflow bottle is a $8 generic replacement bought from kragen auto parts. its definitely a temporary solution though, if not just for the ugly vinyl tubing running across the radiator. it does seem to work quiet well though.
the air filter is a spectre part from autozone, $17. they only had 3" sizes so i had to put a piece of 2.5" hose over the end up the tube as an adapter.
the PCV tube that normally went to the airbox now goes to a $7 PCV breather filter from autozone. temporary solution I think, unless it doesnt leak oil, then i may keep it.
PROBLEMS:
random intercooler pipes pop out of their silicone adapters every day or so. i think this is because the piping i used is not beaded and the silicone adapters are low quality single-ply.
