Default FP Blue with TMIC AP hard inlet tube fitment issues?

Hey guys not sure if I’m posting this in the right sub thread, but going to be helping my friend install his FP blue turbo, and was wondering if anyone is running this turbo with Agency power hard inlet pipe, was there any fitment issues I should be expecting?

My plan was to remove the intake manifold to get it all lined up but just wanted to know if anyone had issues with this set up, he is also going to using a Grimmspeed TMIC so not sure if anyone is using this turbo with that intercooler, any tips?

I had no particular issues installing an FP blue (journal, IWG, std inlet), APS hard inlet (2.4" coupler), and Process West TMIC. At least between those components you are asking about.
-needed minor grinding on block to clear FP's lower coolant pipe, even with x2 thick uppipe gasket
-FP's oil feed line kit sucks, their v2 kit still sucks, way too much hose length and poor routing
-IWG actuator is fixed and nipple is pointed in an odd direction
-top two turbine to downpipe bolting locations were not flat, but FP looks to have corrected that already

Do you have tgv deletes? If yeah what brand, he is using IAG tgv deletes already, I was wondering if maybe getting the GrimmSpeed Phenolic Thermal Spacer might help give the hard pipe room since it raised the manifold by 8mm.

Thanks for the tip on the oil feed line, I’ll do some research on that to hopefully not run into issues.

yea, sorry.....
aluminati v1 TGVs (o-ring seals)
KStech 3mm spacers
one set of oem gaskets between cyl port and spacers

Thicker spacers can lead to some alinement issues with TMIC's but I am pretty sure people have had 8mm spacers work out.

For my hard ap inlet I cut the bov port off and ground one of the mounting bosses off the bottom of intake, 8mm spacers and it still barely fits. No fuel rails or lines.05 257
