    I am looking into buying a new air intake kit for my 2000 GT and am wondering which is the best one to buy.

    I have an old intake kit from SLP and the PCM just sits loosely in a compartment inside the intake box. It didn't seem that secure. Just wondering if there is a better intake kit out there or if there is somewhere else the PCM can be placed so it is more secure.

    Any pictures would be of great help.

    Thanks in advance for any help

    usually everyone just lets it lay there loose, or you can zip tie it down, or you can get a piece of rubber matting, or rubber feet and put that between the PCM and the car and then zip tie that down.

    I used zip ties on top of a foam insulation piece.

    Old old pic, but still solid as a rock. I hate posting these old dirty pics everytime someone asks this question. Maybe I should just take some new ones. LOL! These are easy to make too.

    The PCM? Or that bracket? He made it...bent a piece of metal around it and drilled it into the frame. Done.
