Dont cut the slam panel, safety is more important than performance. Just give yourself time, and take some accurate measurements. You need to centre the intercooler anyway, so you might as well get that fitter properly first.

How about mounting the intercooler directly below the slam panel, and the return pipe undernteath that. That would pull everything back and inline.

Well done Stu! Looks fine to me. I'm sure after a bit of tweaking you'll be happier with it.
