Sorry, I had a brain fart, I meant the T.P.S.
The intake manifold, if i remember right from when I talked to skunk-2, is only 65 mm But maybe I'm getting that wrong too, my memorie is starting to go lately.
The radiator line thing was when I upgraded mine, the radiator line that goes through the throttle body to the idle control sylenoid to open an extra valve when the car is cold to let more air in to the intake manifold AROUND the throttle body butterfly, wont be there anymore, so when you start the car in super cold weather it wont want to keep an idle for a sec. (no auto starts for a bit, possibly)
Also the t.p.s. sensor needs to be set at .45 volts and at wide open throttle at 4.5 volts so that your idle is proper. Those are the factory settings. I've heard of people changeing it a bit up to gain a little more feel to the car or something, but I have no idea. I put it where it said to be.
