For fellow members that have installed these two items, did you use the existing mounting bracket on the intake tube? Please explain how you mounted the tube.

cut your intake tube and it will fit.

Quit being a lazy ass and search it... You just spent how much on your intake and now you're gonna cut it? "I just bought a the turbo kit and it's not fitting, oh yea, it'll totally work if cut the turbo in half"....

if you didnt have the throttle body spacer the intake would fit.
add the throttle body spacer and now your intake is too long.
cut the intake!


P.S. throttle body spacers dont do much

yeah I cut my intake so I can fit the spacer.. Your point? I need the spacer since it has the 1/8 threaded hole for my water/meth jet.

Just return the throttle body spacer and buy bacon with the money instead.

Could probably just buy a whole pig.

There's no point in the spacer except for water/meth, if that was the case you could have done it yourself without the spacer and saved some money. Analogy shamalogy, 50-4k, I wouldn't mod anything I buy for my car besides machining, coating/wrap (things that help with performance). Look at my signature, I never cut my intake and it fits just fine.

^i checked his signature. he's right. he didn't cut anything.

sig proves it.

pearlUA7

.... I'm not disagreeing with anybody that the tb spacer might or might not do anything but ill sure make all of you jealous after I post a dyno sheet..... And also hope I'm not putting my foot in mouth right now. All I can say is E46's can't keep up

pearlUA7

Again, not disagreeing, just sayin I love cars doesn't have the twin clutch which made the ua7 a whole new beast. I will apologize though, worthless threads make me grumpy.
