On a side note...does anyone know where I can get a grommet or some sort of plug to plug an oval hole like the one that I made?? I cant really seem to find anything good enough to plug the hole. If anyone has any sources or even if a sponser has something that would work...let me know! Thanks.

Why not just make it a round hole and get the correct size round plug ?

I know with your custom ac box this probably wouldn't have worked, but here's a pic for others to reference. If you relocate your HVAC relays and such to the dash the PCM will fit quite nicely by the stock AC box.

The optional cross brace on most TPI cars also doubles as a PCM retainer bar.

Mmmm... I think he custom made that ram-air set up... Its what ide like to do eventually with a ram air II hood on my TA. That is one clean, functional, good looking set up he has! Dont know if my skills are up to something like that yet...but its in the plans

I think that my custom heater box was keeping the PCM from sliding into place up by the blower. But there was a bracket that seemed like no matter what it was going to be in the way too... Maybe if my HVAC box wasnt changed around it would have slid to the right some... Thanks for the input guys!!

It's 1 part aftermarket box for the wrong style hood, 1 part 4th gen whisper lid, and 1 part stock radiator cover. All fiberglassed and bondo'd together.
