Idk if you got it running or not, but the intercooler piping is not right on the passenger side. that is why it does not fit.
How do you figure? Mine goes the same way
If there's anyone I wouldn't question about on3 kits, that's the guy.
I figure cause I've installed too many of these kits and chad confirmed the pipe routing. I'll have one of the ppl snap a pic.
Not saying your wrong it's just that mine is ran that way too and it was a bitch. School me up man.
I'll get some pics tomorrow for you guys
My intnercooler piping is different than OP's. If I remember correctly, this is the one of the few places the instructions actually came in handy. There isn't any pics for it, but it was worded well enough for me to tell where each piece went. The clocking of the S shaped driver side intercooler pipe was a different story. It took longer than I care to admit to get that bastard in there correctly.
Yeah, that IC piping is no joke. Cold side should have been easy peasy. I struggled with it for a while, but with a good amount of text messaging back and forth with Gimmie11's, he told me that the J one went on the passenger side and then everything started making sense. I don't know how it would have worked any other way really. I'd love to see pictures of a different setup though.
****Update****
Took the car over to Midnight Performance. Manuel Gomez is hooking me up to fix the exhaust leak that I have. Come to find that it is at the header and is going to be a bit more of a job than we both expected, so he'll work on it coming up next Monday. He was able to get it to seal up a little bit better, but the header needs to come off and it needs to be retightened and RTV'ed. It will be ready to go shortly. Car sounds good so far and I'm about to start datalogging so Chris Holmes can get the tune a little bit closer...just won't get it on the dyno for the final dial in until the exhaust leak is completely fixed.

Rtv ing a header? That a new way to fix something?
High temp copper RTV.
I always throw on a very small mount of copper rtv on aftermarket headers. Usually only on the header side.
If it seals and yields no boost leaks...I could give two shits what it looks like.
No issues here.
Subd:
I saw much better throttle response from free flowing pipe, over what they provide.
