Default My Perrin FMIC is not fitting...

I have maneuvered the piping every which way possible. It is not lining up on the passenger side at all. This is from the intercooler to the pipe that goes through the fender to the throttle body. Any ideas? Is the pipe the wrong size? This is really starting to bother me......

i have no idea about FMICs, but i know that there are two holes that you could pass through into the fender. are you sure it's in the right one? could/would it work if you were in the other one?

Another reason I like this site is he didn't get bashed for asking a "simple" question.

Glad to hear it worked out okay. It's a great intercooler. Let us know how you feel about it.
