NO, I'm looking for parts for my GT. After that cat(girl) on a seat in the Girls with Fiero thread, you deserve this!

I hope you do get it running soon though.......

edit: wrong description.

The hole in the second pic is where the IAC motor goes. Make sure it's cleaned out real good. I'm gonna be home in Buffalo this weekend and I'll see if I have one.

I should have a good used IAC at home. I'll check tonight.

Not sure about that hose. I'll take a look at my car to get a better idea where it goes and go from there.

i needed the IAC thingy, but Formula88 is coming through with it! YAY!!

BTW.. who makes the " " " inside " decals? (like intel symbol.. usually say V8 or something..)

i think it would be nice to get a " PFF inside" one... kinda like the car is powered by all the awesomest people in the world.

There is a bracket that has a square hole in it. You run the cable through there and attach the other end to the throttle body.

I noticed by looking at your Y-pipe that is an '88 Y-pipe. They are a different length than the 85-87's. I don't know what your exhaust situation is, but the stock 85-87 exhaust will not fit with that y-pipe. Your best bet is to order the catback exhaust and an '88 specific straight pipe.

If you have an 88 Y-pipe and an 85-87 exhaust, all you need to make them work is a replacement head pipe from the Fiero Store. Get the pipe that matches the year of your Y-pipe, and cut it to fit. (it's long enough to remove the catalytic converter, if desired).

Yeah, that's fine. The only real change is the location of where the Y-pipe connects to the rest of the exhaust. As long as the exhaust and Y-pipe are from the same year, you're good to go.
