How much was the CHRA?
You have just opened me eyes and... given me the idea of rubber mounting the top bracket, easy as.
Have you picked anything else that has to be modified?
The chra was $1330. but its brand new (read not reco), no problems for upto
200000kms
Thanks

I'd be more inclined to mod the lower bracket if possible, and add the rubber mounts there. Possibly something like this:-

Better to keep the intercooler core isolated from any chassis vibration than isolate the top brackets IMO.
Sorry... I wasn't trying to be critical, the job looks good.
