I recently ordered a new Intake from Mac Performance; however, when I tried to install it the intake tube was way too small. It turns out that my intake configuration is not the standard 99 ex one. The tube they sent is like the one in this thread,

Notice that the throttle body is at a 45 degree angle.

In my engine, the throttle body comes straight down and the air tube makes a 90 degree angle. Picture here:

Does anyone have any info regarding this setup, like if it is from another year or something, whatever can help me get the right intake from the MAC people. Thanks!
 






You have the 4.0 OHV, it looks like MAC sent you the intake tube for a 4.0 SOHC. You're going to need to return it and get the right tube.
