Here you go. Here is a tech article I wrote up when I made my own UICP. If you have any questions or need any pictures then feel free to PM and ask.

Custom UICP
 
good god

its 3 pieces of pipe and 3 couplers

you know the elbow connects to the ic and the throttle body elbow points towards the front. the long piece of pipe should connect those 2 without couplers squished to hell, and the bov should be somewhere close to the stock location, and Ill bet you cant fit the new one in with the old bov still bolted in. :toobad:

todays scene is not on par with the muscle car generation, maybe b/c its like a fashion statement to mod a compact along with pimping the latest cell phone :coy: Generally only real gearheads messed w/ muscle cars.
 
LOL! What kind of 'mechanic' installs UICPs like that? LOL! Next time, take your ride to an 'automotive technician'. Make sure they refund you two hours of labor also, you couldnt pay me to do a pi$$ poor job like that. :toobad: Nice pipe kit BTW... :thumb:
 
Well I got it on. It's obvious the pipes aren't made perfectly for this car, but it works. I just have to fabricate a smaller elbow. Also to everyone that has made comments about when I asked what order it went in, I knew what to do, I was just confused why these pipes weren't working so I was just making sure. But it's done and yeah sounds really good and is performing well too. Closing thread.

Thanks to all who were helpful :dsm:
