Default Nx plate upside down?

Has anyone ran a nx plate upside down? The lines hit the throttle body if I run them on the passenger side. I can run them to the driver side but would
have to buy longer lines, which im trying not to do.

If it is the plate that goes in between the throttle body, it doesn't matter which way it is. It all atomizes in the intake

I would run the plate as intended by the mfg. Your first picture clearly shows the intake gasket not lining up entirely. I bet the gasket for the plate is 180 out as well with the plate flipped. Gasket off the intake manifold is intended to seal the plate and the plate gasket seal the throttlebody. Un-metered air via a leak that could result from installing the setup as you suggest would be not good.

Less than $10 in fittings (one set for N20, one for fuel) could extend out the length/distance to get by the TB without having to buy more lines.

What manifold are you running this on?
