Im honestly not that familiar with the SE intercooler setup, im just talking from what Ive looked at on them. Much better to ask someone who owns one.

MX5 Mania sell complete upgrade kits with all the fittings and hardware:
http://www.mx5mania.com.au/turbo.htmMore expensive but if you are not up to sorting out pipework or fabbing up brackets they are ideal.

I don't know what Dann is smoking, but you can definitely use the standard pipes. I fitted that same size intercooler to my red SE.

The first one, 140mm high.

You will need two 2.25" to 2" reducers and clamps to suit.
