thanx dude. The FTRA is missing a bunch of stuff, but the most important piece is the lower "Ram Air Plate". Look in diagram D in this page to see what the "Ram Air Plate" is:

http://www.fasttoys.net/ramairinstructions.htm

Also, at the top of the page, it lists all the parts of the kit. I only got part A "Cold Air Duct 1". but I'm still missing these parts:
B Ram Air Plate 1

C Block Off Plate 1

D 8-32 x ½ " Screws 3

E 8-32 Wing Nuts 3

F Silver Or Black Phillips Head Mounting Screws 2

G Rubber Seal, 16 " Long 1

H Adhesive Foam Seal, 15 ¾" Long 1

I Adhesive Foam Seal, 8 ½ " Long 2

J ¼" X 1" Metal Bolts 2

K ¼" X 1 ¼" Metal Washers 5

L ¼" Metal Nuts 2

M 5/16" X 1 ¼" Metal Washers 2

damn

Yes you definitely need the lower portion to take advantage of the kit. I have an extra block off plate if you want it. Just give me your address and I will send it to you in the mail.

The rest of the hardware you can get from homedepot or lowes.

Sorry so late with the info, but the kit number you need is FTSLPCAUP on Fast Toys web page for 50 bucks. It includes everything else to convert that SLP kit into a FTRA kit. I think you need the instructions on how to do the cut out on your shroud and lid though. I'm not sure if those instructions come with this kit.
