there you go, the hose from the valve cover is some power steering hose i found in the garage, a tad bit to small thats why it doesn wrap all the way down, but it still connects...now the clamps dont fit, period, i used the ones off my old custom SRI...took them off and used them...the one for the throttle body doesnt really need a clamp, that **** is tight enough as is...youll see when you put it on, no way your car will nock it loose, also if you wondering what that ugly **** on my filter is, its epoxy, the filter i used a K&N filter that a 03 f-150 would use, it is meant to have a clamp together design theu the outer ring, but i epoxy'd a coupler inside of it so i can use a clmap intake style...so yeah, the **** is strong, i swung the intake around for a whle to test it out, i wil replace it for a AEM shortly...

actually you are probably right so far i have lost about 3 miles per gallon then again i have a check engine light with my secondary intake. (i hate cali sometimes) But im working that out right now need to give it a day or two and then well really see the diff.

wondering if putting a bag of ice on the intake will help. LOL j/k

Overall i like it. Great tone, CHEAP, and shinny.

I'm pretty pissed at their customer service, the thing is pictured as having a filter, yet when i opened the box, NO FILTER. I called and they were of no help whatsoever, said they would ground ship another filter, probably take 2 ******* weeks. I said forget it and refund my money for the filter and the ass said he'd only give me 3 bux. Still just going to go buy one I guess. I just dont feel like waiting.
