Right.

A few things to keep in mind when adding a 2.25" IC to an 04+:

1. The alternator needs to be relocated withthe ZZP alternator brackets(Not sold with the IC) They are easy to install.

2. The Throttlebody will hit a stock hood unless you cut part of the hood or use a set of ZZP 1/4" cradle spacers(Not sold with the IC) Again these are very easy to install.

3. Like the prev gen you will need to extend the fuel lines, use fuel rails/logs, or fuel injector spacers.


I would go with the ZZP Stage2 or 3. Also dont forget you will need larger injectors if you plan on dropping below a 3.2-3.3 pulley.

Good luck Modding!
