Default I got my custom TNT ring made ;)

As you know, the TNT ring causes the nitrous lines to hit and most often cut the hoodliner (a $90 item I might add :mad: ) so I had another one made with the help of great forum member. Thanks, Ed. I have ZERO clearance issues now, thus NO more hitting of the hood liner. It's almost too beautiful a piece to put on the car. It's made of stainless steel :D

Check out the pics below:






Money shot :D






Fit and finish is perfect. Unparalleled quality. I love it :D

You don't like your purple TNT power ring? Why don't you just polish it off?

Levi,

Does it have any clamp, screw or fastener holding the ring in place, or it only slips outside of the TB and that's it?

Thanks

Tuan, it has an allen set screw in the top of the ring that allows you to snug it to the TB. Plus, it has thick O-Ring that seals it to the TB. ;)

That's a beautiful piece but why would the original TNT ring hit the hoodliner? Is it the ring hitting the hoodliner or are the hoses? Anyone have a picture of what he's talking about?

And getting alittle off track, but with the power ring, do you have to shorten the duct from the air bridge to the TB?
