Notice anything different? no. you don't.
Something is missing.....
What goes in its place?Maybe one of these....
Nah, just one of these.
My manly pink intake studs
The Fontana phenolic adapter flange...
Skipped a few pics, here's the final product
Here's the throttle body placement, 'twas a PITA for sure, no more cruis control
While I was in there, I figured I'd finish up my big 3 upgrade.

Spare 2.3l TB, anyone want it?
Entire Install took about 6 hours by myself, including modifying the intake mani, doing the wire upgrades, etc.
C&C welcome.

runs great, no CEL either. I threw one for MAP because the hose had a kink, but i fixed that and cleared it. It idles about 200 rpm above normal, but that's no biggie
Its official..... hell has froze over. First Carrie, now Jason.
(btw, j/k)
Engine bay needs a little TLC, but looks good nonetheless

If I ever get another beater and end up getting a new tranny, she'll get TLC in there.
Niice, I love mine.

RIP JESSE GERARD.....Youll always be in my thoughts and prayers...
what did u do for EGR?
looks good tho.. makes me want to do it.. to bad i sold mine.
For the EGR, I used the block-off plate (pn#24575505) and gasket (pn#24573947) on the block, and then I just zip-tied the EGR unit to the manifold.
Everything was prolly about $120 or so. I've had the manifold for a while so I don't remember exactly what I paid for it.
And no cruise because
a) the cable wouldn't fit on the throttle bracket
b) I didn't want to mess with relocating it
c) I don't use it much neways
Let me know how it goes having the EGR just chilling.
Fairly well so far. CEL came on though, EGR low input.
very nice man looks good
now you should send me that pesky little throttle body you have laying around

Pics of it installed, very damn good close for me.
Also the pics shown were not the final assembly, there is a little play in the bottom holes so right before install everyone lines up the flange by pushing it up for obviouse reasons. In these pics it is pushed up to where it is designed to sit and matches very well.
Glad to hear you are enjoying the flange and great looking car. Get some more pics of the exterior!
