I'am about to start my intake flip,I will be using the subie chip to eliminate the EGR system,and I will be using the spacer kit from X35 design.

1. I DON'T know how much of the EGR system to remove.( i dont have the chip yet )
2. I don't know how to do the ALT bracket
3. Is there a shorter crank pulley I can install on the 3.3..???

4. Thanks to all that can help...!!!! Frank

You use the rear hook spot, and I use a bolt up front to balance it all out.

You just block the EGR, with a steel plate, and a plug in the manifold if your using the stock exhaust manifolds. Since I did not keep the stock ECU, it might kick codes. Not sure (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Go to a auto paint store and get a couple of cans of SEM interior spray. They should have it in almost any color. These were black and have held up good for the last 15yrs.

You need to look at ThePaintedMans thread. He did a great job of explaining what he did.

Regarding the steering wheel, you can hit that with some SEM dye too (like the seats).

My ecu isn't water tight so I ran it to the trunk thru the targa latch cup and sealed that. Also provides plenty of space for a relay/fuse panel.
