Just drill and tap the piping and thread your iat sensor. That's what I did.Quote:

So annoyed at JDLautodesign, bunch of *****s leaving a customer like this and not rectifying the situation like a genuine business.
Towing the car in a few hours, Only thing setting me back further delay is that I will now need a "stainless" Tial vband, arghhh.

Thanks bunch guys for putting out time to answer my questions and help me out.
genuinely love you guys with a passion all the way from Australia ha!!. no homo.
Finally got around to organizing a time to tow the car out to get a few things done at JVN garage.
Whats being done? quite a bit of things tbh. JDLautodesign made me a kit that didn't fit, by the looks of it they have made a kit to suit a dc5 and not a dc2. After countless emails to rectify the problem they decided to ignore me because why not? I live half way accross the globe and can't do much.
things being fabricated -
*intercooler pipings (hot + cold)
*mount on intercooler
*re adjust oil return line/fittings
*down pipe
*dump tube
*full straight through exhaust from catback
9am is always a good start! said no one ever... in freezing and wet conditions. :(

Arrived at Jvn Garage with a very friendly welcome by John. Talked to him for awhile explaining what I wanted done, he heard me out and also contributed in opinions that was of value. His ke70 though! what a beauty.

Will be leaving the car there for a week or 2, more than enough time for John to get the job done. See you soon my friend. :cool:

Talking about stickers, finally received my Alcaptures stickers. They look amazing in real life especially the silver and gold one.

Hey man glad to see you've got resources to get the job done correctly. It does indeed look like a dc5 kit now that you say that.Quote:

I feel cheated and only found out 2 years later.
