I'd attach a picture of the pipe -- I can't imagine a small gap at the coupler makes much if any difference -- the pipe still fits over the top of a lip on both the throttle body and intake itself,...

There are never any guarantees with stock motors, but I can tell you that most of your risk lies in the tune. You are much safer with a tuner who understands this car and this kit -- I would go with...

I do agree with E85 -- I enjoy the kit a LOT more with E85 -- the pull is much stronger.

I have been running the 72.5 on e85 with stock pump and injectors for 25k miles now. No issues. I purchased my pulley from Moto east. They were the only vendor who still had them at the time.

Thanks! I'll stick with what i've got for now... It would probably complicate the tune and would be $300 + locating a charge pipe to get all of that in place.
