Hi Marc yes only mounted by the brackets on the sides to the chassis with rubber bushes.
I've made 2 alloy bushes to lower the intercooler by 1cm because the intercooler to throttlebody hose wasn't a nice fit without them.
It will get stiffer when the throttlebody and turbo hoses are connected to the intercooler.
