i now have info on 4 total.. all under $200 anyone interested?
 
I had your problem with clearance also, i cut off my tow hook and now it fits awesome. i dont know if you want to do this or not, but my passenger tow hook was unusable anyway for an autox incident, but cutting it off gave me lots more room to play with. hope this helps. oh yea, i have a 1g also

Its funny you mention that Entropy i did that this afternoon and have managed to push it up a couple of inches and now have a lot more clearance. Great minds think alike haha.. I now have a different problem now. After boosting at about 19psi i managed to rip a hole in my reducer hose (a home depot special) and due to the leak my car was running super rich. When ever i would punch it at anything over 16psi it would studder and pop then it would pick up in the higher rpm's (it was fine at normal boost though:confused:). Any ways I checked my plugs today and sure enough there white and gapped to big. I was wondering why before i blew the hole in the hose my car could boost 20psi with no problem or knock at all. I guess running super rich fried my plugs and i was blowing out my spark under boost. Tomorrow I am gonna put in new plugs and go from there...
 
i did the exact same thing to my reducer pipe, also a home depot special...and a 3mm hole in it! havent checked my plugs yet, but i need to get around to changing them anyways...i sucked it up and bought all new silcone couplers...much better. Now my next project is a pusher fan on the IC facing the front of the car...it got way to warm at slow Autox speeds....still great on the track and freeway though.

After i jacked up my intercooler a couple of inches i noticed that my UIP is pressed up against my headlight motor causing it to come up slower that the other one in most cases and on somedays it don't come up. Did anyone else encounter this problem and if so what did you do? I tried to move the UIP a bit but it is in there pretty tight and don't really move too easily.
