Default Problems with tnt power ring?

I have seen lots of people have problems fitting the power ring over the past couple of years,myself included so I decided to post my fix for it.I just took my maf apart and took it to a machine shop and had them drill and tap it for the nozzles after locating a good position for fitment and even distribution.I've had it like this for 2 years w/out a problem.The nozzles were placed as close to the center as possible then my bellow was notched for the nozzles and it all fits together perfectly.I was just wondering why more people don't do this?

I trimmed my radiator shroud and it seems to fit just fine. Need to get the system wired and bottle mounted now so i can spray this thing.

I have the newer Power-ring (slight improvement over the "old" one) and it took me some time to get everything fitted together. Now it looks great and puts down serious power. Your MAF install looks clean, tho...

This is the way I have installing my N2O nozzles. Power ring fitment sucks.

Wow.... so simple. I never thought of that! You wouldn't have a pic, would you?

(nice job with the maf, btw)

i trimmed mine too actually. before i got the fernco. but that didnt really work for me bc you need some sort of bellow since when the maf leaves the lid, its at an angle, and when it goes back into the TB, its straight.
