Can't figure out this hose situation...

I mean I think I can figure out where I need to put the hoses but where I think their going i cant even remove stock pieces...

somebody help me out... gimme pics or call me or something.



lemme know how to do this...

fucking injen and their negative resolution black & white sorry excuse for pictures instructions


the CAI is all in there and everything... just need hose help.

 

AEM isn't any better.

 

Xephyr's installation guide was excellent ...

 

Okay, look, first you take the "turny, clicky-thing"...

 

Oh no the turny clicky thing again!!!! Soopa you get two red silicone hoses,a fat one and a thin one.There is a vent hose that goes from the front valve cover to the intake tube.Remove it and replace it with the big fat red silicone hose Injen supplies.Now the vent hose you just took off has a metal section of piping on it.You will see that attached to this metal piping is another thinner section of piping.This thinner pipe carries coolant.Follow the thinner piping to their ends.remove the thinner pipe from where it is plumbed into the engine and save the clamps on it.Now using the thinner red silicone hose simply install the red hose to the spots where you just removed the factory pipe.Use the factory clamps to keep the red silicone hose in place.Replenish the coolant as necc. and you are good to go.Jens

 

Okay we're up to three hours since this was posted, and figure another 1/2hour to an hour prior to that he actually started assaulting the engine, so we're still 7 hours short of Amir's masterwork. Now taking bets....

 

i think i'd have to go wit amir....LOL

 

hehehe... been done for awhile.

tom (rock dog) was on the phone with me the whole time...


was mostly succesful... until a power wire fell out of the inline fuse for my amp... i melted an allen wrench into a pool of metal. was very cool, but soopa almost died


my guesses bout where the houses went were accurate... i just wasnt able to get the stock hoses off without destroying them. so tom helped reassure me i had the right things before i went at it.


i didn't bother to put a bypass on just cuz i didnt feel like losing a finger to a hacksaw today... but ill save it for spring or something.


total time: 2.5 hrs.

time actually installing (instead of staring at the car going "where the fuck do these hoses go): 1 hr.


review... welll i havent had a chance to really get the car moving through the gears... it is snowing like a mother fucker.

but... at idle... it is VERY hissy... much more so then the X CAI.

at WOT... it is louder and sounds more "metallic" the the X.


overall. i like it... but im going to get very annoyed at how hissy it is at light throttle.

 

Yup, and almost all our members could buy one at autocarparts.com. For close to cost.

 

Speaking of dipshits ... where is Ernie ???

 

hehe

I heard he was doing a 3-way, with two other members of the board.

 

he was in LI with Scooter & Mercury gettin his groove thang on.
