I have the A-Spec GT35R kit.
My stock air pump is modified to still work in a near stock position and it's air output goes directly into a pipe for the cat (testing only) or into my MP (normal driving).
For testing I run B8EGV plugs gapped at .035" with a special PFC testing map that has been leaned out for the areas tested on the emissions dyno.
I use to run about 10-15% ethanol unitl our city mandated 10% gasohol.
Have passed each year.

Just to clarify, this is without the acv and egr with all the solenoids associated with it?

I have the 35R/500R and yes with "modification" you can get the air pump to fit. I had two relocation brackets made for me. One a copy of Cewr1rx71 that cost me $1000.00 and an adjustable mulitple peice bracket that costs $100 (click link on sig below for info). I have my EGR (95's don't use EGR) and air pipe blocked off but according to the FSM the other passage goes through the intake manifold (and the third is a vent to atmosphere release or airbox). I will be adding a high flow cat and Borla XR1 for noise reduction and will post results when possible.
HKS comes with an air pump and battery relocation brackets but sells for about $6k.
Apexi sells for about $6k also but I have no idea how they retain the air pump.

Isn't there an A-spec kit made nifoldto retain the air pump and similar components?
I just looked at the REW engine sitting in my garage I don't see why it would be so hard or costly to make a manifold that would allow the air injection system to be maintained.

It's a very tight fit between the intake manifold and the frame. Even if the short runner A-Spec manifold and turbo go back 1/4" to clear the air pump ear you still would have a fitment issue with the filter. You would have to use one of those screens on drag turbos which would only filter large objects, not suitable for street. I have a relocation bracket kit to retain the air pump for GT35R and 500R A-Spec short runner manifold turbo kits. HKS comes with an air pump relocation bracket on their T04Z kit. Apexi RX6 retains the air pump but I don't know how they do it (smaller turbo, manifold, relocation kit). These are all comparable street turbos as far as being BB, similar HP, price within $2k and retaining the air pump. I can not tell you if Apexi and HKS are simple bolt in kits with slight or no modification. Hopefully the guys that own them can reply.
