What is the exact problem you are having? CP not fitting on the TB? Bracket not locking down?

Got it on finally but man... what a pain in the ass. never again. the problem with the CP is that it presses against the bracket for the sump. so basically you can't get the angle right to get the TB to match up properly. well i had to move everything and get on there. mission accomplished but i am wishing i just paid someone to do this job this time around. ugh... spend 4 hours doing it.
