AMS Intake Issues
I just bought the AMS VSR with TB and I cannot figure out where to mount the IAC, the MAP sensor, or the the EGR. When I bought this I was told it was a direct swap over. Please help...I am still using stock ECU.

How does your car idle or adapt to turning on the headlights or ac when your car is stopped at idle. I live in a county where I am not allowed the luxury of an AEM or like EMS. I'll call Eric in the am but if you have any pointers until then please send them along so tonight I can still move forward. Much Thanks!

He probably swapped over his stock (or ported stock) throttlebody.. Thats what I did with a Magnus intake.. Give AMS a call, I think they offer a bracket to mount the stock MAP sensor so you can retain it..
The EGR system is the only thing that might give you problems, only if there is no provision for it, you can at least leave the solenoid hooked up.. Everything else is just being creative about running a few vacuum lines..
Being creative is the only requirement for running an aftermarket intake while retaining the stock ECU, don't forget the retune though..
