Thought I'd give you auto people a heads up...
...on a potential boost leak, if you don't already have one. Driver's side at the front grill, look down at the discharge end of the intercooler, right before the hump hose band. There is a pipe clamp made to harness together the transmission oil to air cooler lines. on both my '93's, this clamp had worked/imbedded itself into the intercooler about 1/16" deep. I pulled the harness up towards the trans cooler and tightened up the hardware. Yes, it actually would have punctured through in about 2 weeks if I hadn't caught it. Thank goodness for quick-set metal epoxy's! Check yours out!

Yup, when I replaced mine CAC boots, the way I had those lines routed took out my radiator instead of the CAC. Space is very limited down there, keep an eye out for damage/rubbing.

I checked my drivers side trans lines today 10/14, comming from the oit to air cooler. Sure enough, the top line clamp has a nut digging into the intercooler. Thanks again for the warning!
