still havent answered the question, can the pcm box stay or not? im sure if i looked at it or saw a pic of the stock box i could tell if theres enough room. im not worried about it i can always mount the pcm somewhere just curious.Quote:

Look at mi pictures of v3. I pulled off the foam squares that held the PCM in place in the stock box and put two underneath it and one on top of it right at the corner of the fender. It fits tightly in that position.
thats the way mine sits too :th_thumbsup-wink:Quote:

we get a lot of snow and they salt the road like crazy. the salt kills the cement somehow and cars driving on cold bad cement make it pothole city. and they cant fix the roads until it warms up again.Quote:

hrm the filter i have is 3" opening, i have a 4" to 3" coupler at home, have to find it somewhere. will i be ok with this? considering that the 98 stock intake is 3" and has 2 90 degree bends. if it goes straight out does the abs unit get in the way? looks close.
The basic spectra filter i just put on touches at the tip of it but not bad so yours may touch
I still need a 20* bend of my tb dont like the way it sits plus i need to have my iat in the tube lol
it would be better going to a 4" filter opening
yeah mine is a spectra i believe. its about the same length as a spectra i bought at murrays before. ill see if it fits, ill probably end up needing a bend though. does the iat have to be in the tube? ive ran a few cars with it just handing there around where the filter was without noticing anything.Quote:
