you shoulda had 2 pieces of pipe for the passenger side.

so flex hose > short pipe with bend>coupler>short straight pipe>filter

and I had to get creative with an old Nismo CAI that I had... SFR gave me the wrong length pipe OR flex tubing, i dont know which but it was actually not a hard fix.

Thats the way I plumbed it. Not sure why there just wasnt 1 long piece to skip on that extra coupler.

I told ya that flex hose would be fun

So, intake/ intercooler piping is done for the most part.. I had to Nip off some of the plastic and it went under my mask and ended up hitting me in the corner of the eye... the side of my face has a burn but i can still see. Thank god.

Jesus man, what a nightmare. Remember, if you do 'hulk out', don't destroy anything that might be expensive to replace

Lookin good man. At the start of your thread it inspired me to take a project like this on over summer. Now after all the crap you've gone through its completely smashed my confidence haha. Congrats for sticking to it though. Sounds like your home free for the most part. BTW, I just ordered a set of V2's so if you are still lookin for a pair of Tein springs I can sell you mine when I my new suspension in. Cheers!

So the FTC is in properly... I hope...SFRs instructions haven't been amazing so far.

There is just a few more things left, finish the vacuum lines, reconnect o2 sensors sasha extended for me and connect the oil scavenger pump.

However I don't know where to hook it up, or which wires i should tap it into. I know its any 12v source, but the wires aren't really long enough to hit the coil packs... so i would have to make them longer... if i am doing that i might as well put it to a better location...
Any one know of a better location?
