i was only using this template as a reference for sizes. Had i know it was so utterly useless i wouldnt have spent the 80 bucks (with shipping) on these stupid pieces of ****. Im gonna go bigger, thats for sure and my exhaust is going a little bigger also.



As for the engine. Thing is the apex seal didnt really like shatter or anything. A corner chipped off (small break) and that made the 1 gash. The rotor has a couple little scraps in it, but nothing bad. I will take pictures tomorrow when everything is done soaking in carb cleaner.

Even fd ones will work, the only differnce between s4 and s5 housings is the egr passage. Just need to block it.
