you have to do some "trimming" to make everything fit. have to cut some of the lid ( trim down the neck of the lid so it brings the maff closer to the front of the car) and the bellows. everything will fit just fine after you trim it.

I used a fernco hose for a smooth bellows, you can find them at home depot and lowe's.

I decided not use the ring on my setup. I am about 20 minutes away from you and have the TNT set up if you would like check it out.

I have their systyem and was able to just cut my bellows to get the ring to fit on. Didn't touch my lid. It's really pretty easy.
