Can FRC's fit w/AIR?
I'm about to recieve FRC's and I was just looking at the engine bay and I noticed it's going to be a tight squeeze between the frc and the air pipe am I'm going to have some issues? and also it's an a4,the passenger side looks pretty clustered as is

Yes, they will, although you may simply have to carefully bend the AIR tubes a bit to gain some necessary clearance.
It may also be necessary to cut the top/back side of the passenger side to gain clearance for the dipstick tube. No worries tho, cuts will be hidden after installation.
Godd Luck!

Let me tell ya, the FRC covers will go in so much eiaser without the AIR system on the car. Wont have to cut the backs of them at all. Do you self a favor and buy the block off plates from Thunder >>> for like $20. Youll be glad you did.

I agree, just remove the whole AIR system if you dont have strict emissions in Florida. On my passenger side, I had to bent the metal AIR tube ever so slightly to get the FRC to fit. No problems with the driver side. The back of the FRC's need to be trimmed to clear the rubber part of the AIR tubes. The cuts are well hidden after installing them.
