I cannot get the silicone hose over the thottle body!!! What is the deal, is there any special way to do it???

 

The inner diameter of the hose is just a tad smaller than the flange on the throttle body.

I ended up having to take the screw out of the hose clamp, so that I could install the clamp around the hose after stretching it around the TB. What worked for me was to get one patch of the hose "engaged" on the flange, then kind of stretch it around a little bit at a time.

 

Drive down to South Carolina where it is so damn hot that the hose will just melt onto the throttle body. Seriously though, if you let the hose heat up in the direct sun, it becomes much easier to compensate for being slightly undersized.

Get ready for your car to sound like a bunch of wasps trapped in a bucket...

 

Weel, i finally got it thanks to bgreene. It sounds so damn loud I dont know if i like it yet.

 

so quickly, do you guys with the typhoon intake recommend it, or is there something out there better for power and sound..

thanks

 

yea whats the deal with the typhoon K & N, what about AEM's RX-8 intake. Does the K & N deliver the promised 9 hp and i heard you need to reset electrical and let car idle with new intake installation?

 

do a search

everyone has different thoughts about the kandN
