One good thing to come out of today is my FMIC is in and awesome, piping all ran without any major hassles, and I can start putting the nose on my car back together (yeeha). Imma have to cut MASSIVE amounts from the fascia, and a lot of the bumper, to clear it, but I dont mind. Its a pig nose BTW, which as you know are canted at that crazy angle under the bumper support.

Ill try to get some pics later tomorrow and post em up, y0!

Oh ya, its a 21x9x3 core, 31" end to end, with outlets towards the bottom of the IC, just in case anyone was wondering.

Yeah, my Hybrid kit went in perfectly, I was pumped...considering it was meant for an s15 sr20...just a little pipe trimming and I was set!

For sure, my piping was from a GTS-T, and came with my Egay BOV (SCORE!!!). I had to trim a few pipes and use the stock hot pipe, but other than that I was good to go. Ill take some pics today.

Are you guys using an aftermarket intake plenum? If so whats the best one to get? By the way I'm referring to the rb20.

I had to cut mine to make it fit, dunno about the other peeps. I pretty much notched a wedge into it and tilted the IC as far forward as it would go, but left a sizeable amount in case I wreck into somethin, dont want NOTHING up there, you know?

REmoved my bumper support, I had the S15 kit, so it bolted right up to my s15 headlights and to two holes under the frame.
