what kind of instructions do you need? its pretty straight forward, and the instructions dont really tell you much...its just pipes, hoses and clamps...and drill holes through engine bay as needed to fit the pipes. I might have mine, but it doesnt really help u much

I know it sounds stupid asking this question but I am really having trouble. I put the top mount where the hood latch is but the the two bars on each side that have the horn on them block the intercooler and there is nowhere I can mount the bottem.

I think the best boost is definatly Killions.... but with the price of mods lately (and gas, hookers ect) I'm on more of a "Beast" budget.....

take the horns off, I had to cut those bars up a bit to make the core fit on my S13 (but it wasn't the greddy kit so I'm not sure how that is supose to go yet)

Glad to know I'm not the only one who had a hard time with that crap intercooler.

There is a cylinder that comes with your kit, it's about an 3/4 inch long and 1/2 wide... you have to put that inbetween the bracket and the hood latch. Then there are two L brackets that have to be installed near the bottom, and the nuts/bolts go through there. After that, you should be able to mount it, and you just need to cut that hole.

Honestly, that pissed me off so much about the GReddy kit too. The Blitz is much better. I really wish I had gotten a Blitz kit now.

Mt Greddy FMIC took a while to do as well. I had to use a sawsall on those brackets that hold the horns. Had to cut a lot of stuff with the sawsall, but The intercooler fits really nice. Just took a while to install.

thats for the stock recirculating valve. Or stock BOV. You need to have it welded shut like I did or have it plugged.

Or recirculate your BOV. But then there isn't the orgasmic sound of the BOV!!

I talked about the Greddy kit with my shop a while ago, he said they always just mount the horns elsewhere.. for less clutter..

Not necessarily.

Some of us mount our BOV's in that location.

I was actually going to do that, but I didn't want to take a chance of water getting in there when I get an aftermarket front bumper. Plus welding aluminum isn't fun, so I just mounted my BOV on my hotpipe.

Nah, it doesn't throw codes, but it can cause you to stall occasionally if you don't have it tuned.
