Today I bought an ETS FMIC Kit from one of the partouts in the classifieds section but It looks like I'm missing a pipe (The one that bolts to the tb). I have the pipes that lead to the tb, but nothing to actually bolt on to the TB to couple the next pipe to. Hate to be a newb, but Am I missing a pipe, or missing something else??

Here is a pic of my tb currently

Was the kit for a 1g or 2g? It looks like your missing the throttle body elbow.

To the best of my knowlege, the kit came out of a 92gsx and I have a 91gsx. Sorry to be a noob, but doesn't only the 2g have the elbow?
 
Just go through the dsm classifieds and buy a 2g TB elbow they flow better cause theyre bigger the the 1gs. that and it will better match up to the piping on the fmic kit and it bolts right on to the stock 1g throttle body.it willl only run you $20ish.
 
To the best of my knowlege, the kit came out of a 92gsx and I have a 91gsx. Sorry to be a noob,

Both elbows are similar the 2g is a little larger and better flowing. what ever you can find will work as its not going to make a noticeable difference at near stock hps and either one is better than none.

No need to apologize about being a Noob. Every one is still a Noob on some topic, anyone who thinks they are not a Noob to anything must be a Noob at life.
 
Ok, so from what I gather so far. It looks like I am just missing an elbow. If I buy a stock 2g elbow, It will bolt right up to my 1G TB and I sould be fine?

P.S. Thanks for all the input so far
 
yep. check out the classified section in this forum there are quite a few part outs to pick over.

If your interested in a higher performance option the company Road Race Engineering makes a Tb elbow to match up to IC systems. Kinda pricey but they make very good stuff.
 
I just bought a 2G Elbow from the classifieds and it will be shipping out first thing monday. :thumb:

Thanks for all the help and useful information, You guys rock :hellyeah:
