Hey can you tell me the model no. of the apexi intake and where you bought it? I'm interested in purchasing one for my 91 N/A but wasn't sure that the Turbo one would fit.

Was it still necessary to take the trim panel off?
Did your local auto parts have the reducer or did you have to order it?

Does it matter which one of these I purchase?

I have the 70mm....I bought the reducer on ebay, I bought a real silicon one, for like 15 bucks, it was off my turbo car. You can get a reducer from autozone or something like that for 6-7 bucks, the rubber kind is fine for a NA engine..I didnt have to take the trim panel off..

The rims look great.. Did they need to be shimmed or did they just bolt up?
