Welcome!

and in case you have issues on the search, the 02 style IC is too deep. the 06-07 is just right for our cars.

turtle, you can use lots of different turbos without having to change engine mgmt.

but, a $80 06 intercooler will fit much nicer. if your adding an i/c you may as well at least put in a td04 turbo, it makes things much much easier.

search it, lots of info

the silver one you have will bang against the firewall even if you hammer it in and it fits kinda slanty. the 06 07 ones fit really nice and look better to.

sell it

Yes, its where your BOV attaches to. you'll need some sort of adapter plate. In my installation guide, I used a "Wyntonm BOV blow off adaptor" from ebay.
