The AWS doesn't really do anything good, especially if you have a downpipe. At least nothing worth saving it for. Most people prefer to remove it since just about everyone is starting their cars in gear and/or blipping the throttle to prevent it from running its cycle before the car is warmed up. I would get ride of it just to make things easier.

There should be two plates that go right underneath the upper manifold- in the middle of it. Then there's another one for double throttle. There's one on the back edge of the lower manifold where the hose to the main cat connects, and another one on the outer surface of the lower manifold for the EGR valve. I know there's like 9 total including the oil plates.

Wish I could show more pics but that is all I have. You may want to think about removing the butterflies while you are at it.

Why did you decide to remove the ISC?

butterflies= flaps of the double throttle control system. Remove the flaps to eliminate air flow restriction.
