We've installed many of these without a single problem.

I have the full pdf if you want it.

Thank you for the help, I will try that. It was installed for me at a shop. I was never given the instructions for the blow through and I bought the FMIC slightly used so there was no instructions for that.. I am trying to do my own installs now. As hard as they are on some jobs. My aching back

. Haha I am such a desk jockey. Damn belly and bending down for tools.

And no, I didn't contact Perrin. I guess I should ask for help but I don't want to seem like the typical guy knocking them for some free product. I don't mine paying, I just want working stuff. It wasn't cheap.

Care to say which shop if you think they did something incorrectly? Now that you know that a piece needs to be relocated, does it look like they relocated it and it's still hitting? Or, did they fail to relocate as is shown in the instructions?

If they failed to do something listed in the instructions I say they owe you new pieces and a satisfactory repair of all damage. If they did the right install and it still hits, then it's perrin's problem.
