It will fit with a little bit of massaging on your intake manifold, just get a dremel and a burr and smooth out the lip of the hole that your egr spacer bolts on to (on the upper manifold).

uuuh you might also want to suggest that he does this burr and smoothing with the whole upper intake off the car so he can clean all the shavings off that way it dosent end up inside the motor.

i didnt need any "massaging" to get mine on. the bbk 70 mm tb and spacer BOTH went on no problem just popped my old ones off and slapped new ones on. easy to do just take your time and watch where everything goes. should be pretty self explanitory though. good luck.

It will physically bolt right on, but now you have a lip inside.
