I went to multiple places, and no one had a 1/4" to 5/16" barb fitting. I bought a 1/4" to 1/4" barb fitting and a 5/16" to 5/16" barb fitting. I'm just going to have to make one of them work.

I just bought a new piece of hose and went from the radiator to the vent tube. It was just a little loose on the vent. Just tightened up pretty good on it with a hose clamp. No leaks at all.

Didn't even think about that. If this doesn't work, I'll just do that.

Anyone else have problems viewing this thread? It is showing that rise of the Phoenix was the last to post in here. But it still shows my post as the last one on my screen.

Nope. But that problem has been popping up off and on for like 2-3 months now.

Weird. Now it's showing. Almost as awesome as the hijack adds.

I thought I was the only one. Thread is acting weird.

Any advice on what to use to help seal the IAT sensor in the air lid? The FTP 98mm lid did not come pre-drilled for the IAT sensor. I do not have the grommet thing from my old SLP lid.

Also, I'm going to try and re-use my 4"x6" silicone tube that I got from intake.hoses.com, but would something like this work better since it's got a 22 degree bend?





Or something like this: This one is 4"x7" and it says it can be used to go from your lid and can be bent slightly for a better fit.

For the vent tube I just went with 1/4" all the way back to the radiator and replaced the fitting at the radiator with a 1/4" fitting.

I run this hose. It's almost perfect. slightly grease the ID of the throttle end to help it stretch over the TB flange.

Thanks Darth. Any advice on the best way to seal the IAT in the lid? Do I really need the grommet, or could I use something else?

I used a grommet, but IDK which one any more. I also run a volant intake, so the IAT is pre-filter vs the stock style lid, which the IAT will be post-filter.

Tick Performance has it. Guess I'll just order it to be on the safe side.

That's what I use. 4x6 22 degrees. I had to cut it down to fit. But it works.

Also, for the IAC, just mount it on your bumper. That way you can avoid heat soak and leaning out while sitting in traffic.

I bought the second one...In theory I thought it might help with sucking shut and fit better being it can flex in the middle.

Jake, you have any pictures of this? Would it entail extending the wiring?

This picture here shows the IAC to be underneath the ram-air box. Again, is any splicing required? Not sure it would reach without extending the harness.

If you get the one from a Syclone, it comes with the harness extension:

I'm going to see if I can mount mine somewhere with the factory unit. There's got to be somewhere within reach that sees fresh air.

So on the part of the TB where the cable connects to, there are two holes. Which one do I need to put the throttle cable through? And I assume I'll have to tap it into the hole because it's really tight.
