Default Wet system Nozzle mount question

I want to mount my nozzle now but I have the stock air induction hose from the lid to the TB and the stock one is accordain shaped on the outside, I cant see any possible way to mount my nozzle without buying a smooth Bellow? Is there anything I need to know before I go buy a smooth bellow?

TIA

What you can do is drill a hole throu your hose clamp and the back side of your maf. Then tap.. Put the unit back on the car with nozzle installed and you are good to go..
Rigid mount, clean look, and no need to purchase a smooth belows...

Thanks!
Ok, so drill a hole trough the hose clamp,rubber, and the MAF end that the hose clamp clamps around? Then tap the alluminum maf end for the thread pitch that's on the nozzle? Just wanna make sure I understand correctly before i drill anything out.

You could still mount it in the rubber bellows if you use a fogger nozzle mount with nut.
It should have come with your kit. What kit are you using? Ricks idea works as well...Just wondering...

I'm using a fogger nozzle, its in the CFN wet kit. The factory bellow is accordian style, the only way I can understand what you're reccomending would be to drill in between the folds and tighten the nut up untill it forces the rubber around it to become flat. Am I right?

Correct, standard procedure. However, if it were my set-up, I would opt for mounting as per Ricky.

Thanks! Think I'll do it this way, it will put the nozzle further away from the TB which will be better for atomization, look pretty clean,and I can plug the hole if for some reason I need to remove the nozzle.

Depends on the nozzle if its NX 1/8 npt, some others are 1/16npt.
