Thank you! 
Here is my question:
But, I don't see mounting holes for the SMIC either:
And I need a small beaded metal pipe with a BOV Flange:

Question 
:
It seems like that side EGR flange on the intake connector leads to a small pipe (with a hole) used for dumping exhaust gasses back into the intake charge. Is this correct?
If it's safe to remove it, has anyone tried? It seems to me that removing it would increase the intake flow and this should be better right?
It seems like it blocks a respectable portion of the intake flow. Can I remove it, will it help, and has anyone done this before? Your help is greatly appreciated!

and while you are working on the intake you might want to look at the coolant bypass mod aswell.
good luck on the project man. and keep up all the pics

I'm playing with gasket/ rubber o'ring configurations to achieve the best fit possible for these into the intake runners and fuel rail. Anyone know of good combinations that work?
I hope this works!:

I removed the "extra rubber" piece on the lower part of the injector so the only rubber on there is from the stock injectors. As a result, the RX7 injectors stick into the header hole more, but this enables me to safely torque down the fuel rail to spec and the fit is better. The Diagnostic "FP B+" test showed no leaks from the fuel rail. So, I'm Finishing the install tonight and getting a few parts and labor tomorrow morning so the exhaust and tuning can hopefully be complete by Friday

yeap you're going to have to spen a little more on the piping than you thought you would just like me. try mounting your smic a little further back so that the 90 deg bend bends right before the sway bar

I need some "temporary" solution to get me to the shop that will be finishing and tuning the car. Any suggestions? I'm thinking of going to Home Depot and/or Lowes to see if they can help.

I have the smic as well. Would it be best to use the stock piping that comes with smic, and then have a shop make the rest to make it fit? Or would it be better to just get new custom piping all together and not use any of the stock piping that come with the ic?
