is it supposed to slide into that black one bro.
if so. what you do is get a knife or a real sharp blade and start trimming from outside untill inside. this makes the end thinner and u can squeeze slide it in. also use some sealant or something if needed, usually not needed but.
easier way is to poke tiny hole through the bottom one on both sides. then poke tiny hole through blue hose both sides and in line with black hose. then take the top black hose off so you can see inside blue one into black one, what u wanna do is line up the holes u poked then run tiny zip ties through the bottom one and exit through blue one (do both sides) then close the loop. then put top black one back on and ure done.
Hey nice! I think 1 zip tie just may work! On the right hand side there's a hole u can see,it's already got a zip tie,so I should make a hole in the blue rubber bit.Thanks Hisoka!
Drill a small hole through the blue bit,so it will be stronger than a slit yeh?
yer, but dont use to big of a bit, try and get the smallest one that will just fit the zip tie bro,. the more air that is being released out of the hole the less pressure is in there obviously, so small is good.
its like the vacuum cleaner when u want to remove the end part of the nozzle its real hard to do when cleaner is on, but when u slide the thingy at the top so a hole is expose in the pipe, the holding or sucking pressure is dropped and the vacuum cleaner end part is easier to take off. moral, just make sure small hole
Done.I didn't drill a hole,I put the cable tie around the hose clamp and through the hole (right hand side of pic).Worked a treat!
Cheers!!
looks good, but a bit compicated. have you thought of cutting a hole out of your front bar infront of the wheel well then putting a pipe or air dam right behind it. same effect much less material, but i guess your way no hole in the front bar. that way it acts as both forced air and sucked air, plus less distance to travel through pipes.
also is your intake from the filter back metal??? if you can shorten it, you can fit a 3inch 90 or 45 degree pipe combined with a flexi joint to help for angle, through the hole into the wheel well that way you don't have the risk of that joint coming loose, cause that flexi pipe looks like its struggling.
i should probably try and make a custom CF box before i leave uni...sigh. hmm i should get around to asking my supervisor if i can. :)
but props for doing the hard work, if it works it works!
Thanks Quang,I know what you mean but it works fine so I'll just leave it and see how it is on the dyno soon...
