That plastic intake does not look very boost friendly. It there an aluminum one from another car we could use? Do I see a foam gasket sealing the two pieces? That looks like the result of a Nitrous accident, right?

That was an Hass turbo install from one of the Spyder guys. It was installed by the individual, not by Hass. That's a 1zz, while your (our) engine is the 2zz with an aluminum intake manifold. That will not happen.
