Post a few pictures of it if you can.


Did it come with a throttlebody inlet that looks different than a factory one?

If not that's what is most likely confusing you as you need the HKS throttlebody inlet for it to fit nicely. The ARC Tmic's are the same way and only look right with the ARC throttlebody inlet.

I don't have much experience with them other than that, hopefully someone else who has one can chime in to help.

that just means she couldn't find it in her current catalog. looking at the pics it looks like that pipe and bov don't belong. they were prob just thrown into the deal. got bigger pics or some of the bottom?

looks like it should bolt right up to me. The 90* with the bov comes off the turbo to the long pipe of the ic and the other end goes to the TB. Seems simple......Anyone else ?
