How long have you had the Needswings CAI? They only recently shipped a Y-Piece that would fit so you might want to check the diameter of your Y-Piece. My 82mm TB outer diameter is 3 9/16ths Inch.

Savman,

I've had it a couple of month's.. Spoke with Rob at needswings and he indicated that he will give the new Y pipe that fits the 82mm throttle body, all I have to do is send him back my current Y pipe...

Which 82 TB are you using??? How was the install? Did you need an adapter plate?

This is the part number A2731410325, I do have an adaptor plate and the Needswings fit is tight. I had to cut a good inch of the Y-Pipe to clear the bulkhead.

Just wondering if Needswings will sell just the 82mm y pipe?
