Default TNT F1 install help

so i was getting it all put together and whatnot, but i cant seem to get it all to fit (power ring, MAF, bellow).

can i see some pics of other TNT kits installed and what you had to do to get it all to fit? i have a stock TB, stock MAF, stock bellow, and a TSP lid.

i went to home depot last night and bought a piece of Fernco if i need it, but i dont remember anyone saying i needed it in any other install threads, and it doesnt say it in the instructions.

You might have to trim the air lid to get it all to fit. Thats seems to be a common thing with the older TNT kits. I hear the newer ring fits better… but I don't know.

I got a slp smooth below and trimmed it to where I could just get a clamp on it. With trimming the lid alittle it fits nice.

I had a SLP bellow that was trimmed & I had to cut quite a bit off of the air lid on my '98 Z.
