You can't use the DE IAA unit on the VE, they're entirely different. The VE one has a hard pipe that connects to a hose which connects back to the TB to MAF pipe. On the DE the air rerouting is done some other way, as it does not have that hard pipe nipple on it. But that's all a mute point because I wasn't saying to swap the whole IAA unit, just the FICD itself or cut the DE FICD connector off and solder on the VE FICD connector like I did. You can swap the DE FICD over to the VE IAA unit. I chose not to because my DE IAA unit is brand new and cost me a lot of money, so I wasn't going to render it useless by taking the FICD off.

If I get motor mounts inserts for a highport DE... will they insert into the VE brackets?
|
My VE didn't have any of the VE mount brackets on it, so it was easy to just bolt my DE ones onto the block.

So the highport accordian goodness won't work with the lowport?
|
I made it work on mine but just temporarily until I make my own CAI. Some VE's come with the VE MAF to TB piping, so you if your's comes with that then you're in good shape.

Is this something I can get at Home Depot?

You could try but it's a lot easier to just go to the auto parts store and buy a piece of 3/4" heater hose and a 3/4" to 5/8" heater hose adapter. You'll probably spend more for the wrong parts if you try to get them at home depot.
