We have worked very closely with designing this billet spacer that goes between the throttle body and greedy elbow. This spacer will allow everyone to keep their greedy elbow and all accessories in stock locations with no modifications.. thank you everyone for all the support
What ever happened to Howard's before and after on the intake? Why aren't there others who have these posting on it? I really was hoping for more info to be in the thread from a couple months ago but no real posts besides the throttle body extension. where are the dyno sheets and pics of them in in the fd? ... also elite will there be a group buy anytime soon? Or did I miss it. (Noticed the slight price increase since a couple months ago)

New experience feedback or news ?
Also I need some feedback and info about use FullIntankeSystem with a FD Throttle Body,or if need the spacer for throttle body and the oil filler neck
quick feedback, I have a TDX61 turbo from turblown with a large 1.15 a/r turbine housing and it does not fit with this intake on turblown's turbo manifold nor on a-spec shorty manifold.
Turblown was able to make me a one-off turbo manifold that would clear though. So larger turbine housings will probably have fitment issues with Turblown, Gleaseman, Aspec manifolds.
One other thing to add, if using on a t2 keg and not using the throttle body spacer, you'll need to modify the oil filler neck, i had to make mine shorter to clear the greddy elbow.

Bump. I'd be keen to know before and after testing results too. There are lots of positive "feel-pinions" on this kit but they are meaningless and I am yet to see any actual data.
So this is pretty much a dead thread but since there are no finished FD installs pics I thought I should share mine.
As anyone with this intake knows this is definitely not a direct bolt on part! I previously had a Xcessive lower intake manifold. The Xcessive LIM performed great so It will definitely be interesting to get some comparable numbers on this manifold. Only have a few miles on a fresh motor so it will probably be January till I properly break this motor in. Manifold look great but lots of fab work was needed to get everything the way I wanted it.
Looks good, I see you didn't get the throttle body elbow spacer. I think with that you would have been able to use your original Intercooler piping
The motor actually sits about a 1/2 inch lower. Using adjustable FFE billet mounts on the lowest setting so IC piping had to be redone anyway. I have the space but definitely prefer it this way. There is tons of room on that side of the motor now.
Anyone tried fitting this with a turblown ewg cast manifold?
I tried a 9180SXE with a long runner turblown dual gate manifold and it is not even close to fitting. This manifold footprint should be identical to the cast version so unless the turbine housing is super small it is not going to fit. I'm using a Gleaseman Big-R with the same turbo and it fits no problem.
