Did my Frankencar package include everything? (PIC)

Hey, I got home to see that my intake from Frankencar finally got here. Just want to make sure that this is everything, since they do not include a packing list. I am worried that I am missing the MAF adapter piece (I looked on their website and saw how the intake looks on their 2K2, and I can't seem to understand where my MAF is going to connect with this setup that I received). Thanks for checking..

Not sure if that image will work because it is on a free server, so here's one I uploaded to my Cardomain site real quick (if you need a bigger pic, just check page 3 of the site, it's the first thing on there. Thanks much:

Your MAF adapter piece is the piece in the top right in your pic.

Also, lets check..K/N or Apex-I Filter(with installtion kit consisting of Aluminum Apex-I Filter adapter, 1 silicone coupler and 2 T-Bolt Hose Clamps.)

4 Heavy Duty T-Bolt Hose Clamps - You got em
2 Silicone Couplers - You got em
1 High Gloss Powdercoated MIDPIPE - You got it
1 Billet Aluminum MAF Adapter - You got it
Sticker and Instructions - Got em, but instructions suck anyways.. Actually, I don't even think any came with mine..

good luck, you'll be very happy, I am

Also you can look at my website to see how it connects... http://www.cardomain.com/member_page...=327416&page=6

Also, notice that it says "problem" .. It's really not a problem.. I misunderstood someone and I have the bolts going thru the wrong way.. just put them in from the otherside and you'll be fine

I definitely notice a gain in hp. The car is more responsive. I haven't been able to really assess the gas mileage yet, I just installed mine yesterday. At first I wasn't impressed, but as I drove it more last night and this morning the better the car performed. And not to mention, the car sounds absolutely great.

Thanks much for helping me out.. I will install it on Thursday, after my dealership checks my car for the hesitation TSB.

Hey LithiuMax, which dealership are you gonna go to? I'd like to get that checked to but Boardwalk says they don't even have consultII which is BS but I don't want to deal with their garbage...

Serramonte dealership.. they are going to check it out, but I am not sure if they will give me any shiit about there not being hesitation. I will get back to people on the West Coast forum if all goes well (and even if it doesn't.. heh). The service dude (I think his name is Larry, middle aged white guy with a mustache) was pretty cool about the stuff I told him that needed fixing, and he scheduled an appt with no problem. So it seems to be OK for now.. will let you know.

Yeah I emailed them 3 times about getting some stickers after they said they would send me some, but never did.
