Need help with jethot install ASAP

Problem #1 the EGR threads on the end of the tubes on the headers is too big to screw in the EGR adapter thing that came off the stock manifolds. This is on both sides.

Problem #2, Hooker y-pipe doesnt fit, its too wide.



Any advice on how to fix these problems is welcome.
Thanks in advance...

Do you mean the AIR fittings?

And my Hooker Y-pipe better fit!

The 2 fittings on the front that stick up on the headers, they might be AIR, not sure.

And the y-pipe is 2 inches too wide, I have tried pushin it with my legs, still not even close.

Why don't you just completely get rid of the AIR system? It will come out in 10 minutes and you won't need since you don't have cats anymore.
