JBR 3" aluminum intake
 
I bought the JBR 3" aluminum intake with the 4" coupler for my gt2871r and it is causing some serious fitment issues.

As soon as I line up the stud and nut on the tip the coupler kinks up really bad.
And dont get me started on the battery box... eye yi yi.

Ive wasted way too much time trying to make that work.

My turbo came with the cpe big turbo intake and I was going to get a 45* coupler and run that with the jbr intake part but then there is no spot for the valve cover breather.

Are there any 3" intakes that have a spot for the breather on the intake not tip section?

If it helps, the breather pipe in the genjuan VC can be rotated by sliding a small deep well socket/extension bar inside it and giving it some persuasion @jack_hammer;

You could also just put a filter on the vc vent. I'm running the cpe bt inlet, and it comes with a filter to do exactly that.
