Mine is a VTA dump valve & is fitted on the NS intercooler pipe near the bulkhead. You may need to buy an adapter plate to weld in. I'll try to find a picture.

Not a great picture but you can just see it below the NS hard pipe. It's a VTA Forge valve on a Hybrid intercooler.

Call Tom at RCM, it's the largest trumpet they do with K&N to match. Not cheap but highly recommended.
