When people use pictures of cars they did NOT build on thier website, it makes me not buy products from them.

I think that's been around longer than FMs new kit. Not sure who's a copy of who, but AVO is based out of Japan so I doubt they give a crap what FM is doing or trying to copy them. Plus they have the 5th injector by the TB, which is neato.

Is that what the bung/flange is on the cast inlet pipe that bolts to the throttlebody?

Strange cross-flow-ish BOV.

Yes, AVO's been selling kits for quite a while; probably not quite as long as FM, but close.
