Rep Power: 0 thanks everyone, i do have another 90 degree, someone told me that my check engine light will turn on if I don't have that plugged in but i guess not. I'll replace it today. I am using a stock dsm side-mount with some fabrication so the inlet and outlet are on the same side next to each other. Oh, does anyone have pics of the type-b rear lip installed, I might want to get that but if not, i'll just get another type-rs rear lip.

Rep Power: 399 Clever little install.
Leave the IAT exactly where it is, just go get some RTV and slobber it all over the outside of the boot at the sensor connection so it stays sealed. If you drilled the hole small enough that you had to jam it through, then the tight fit + RTV will hold it closed. Thats how mine is in there. Especially with the sidemount which will probably heat soak in hot weather, you're gonna want that sensor in there so the ECU has an accurate reading.

Rep Power: 0 k thanks for the info, i actually have some rtv in the toolbox somewhere lol, i'll be sure to do that tomorrow. For some reason, after everything has been done with the looks and turbo, i'm not happy with my car, I don't know why. Half of me wants to sell it and get a new car and the other half is like "dam*" you did a hell of a job with it.
