MAF Intake from Z1...

ezred · 04-01-2013, 01:36 PM

Having trouble installing the passenger side MAF hose. Any tips? The black hose from manifold is not lining up....Thanks...

Pictures to help explain what you're talking about? There are a lot of black hoses in the engine bay...

Pic on left is the passenger side - hose crimped
Pic on right is driver side - connection is below not seen in pic.

looks like the hoses are on backwards somehow the z1 emblem should show upwards

ezred · 04-01-2013, 08:13 PM

They are on the upside...need to see the Z emblem when looking at the engine bay...may need a custom fit for the side fit

You shouldn't be removing the black plastic harmonics boxes I believe... Unless you have their PCV kit too...

So you essentially are just removing/replacing the Accordion section, nothing else.

i install mine without the silver thing on the passenger side

ezred · 04-01-2013, 09:26 PM

So is it ok to remove the silver thing from the silicone tubes? They could/would fit then right?

Thanks...

No? That's the connector between the two pipes.

Red_Z · 04-01-2013, 09:31 PM

That's the only way I can get everything fit together. No problem so far, but I only have about 500 miles with it

ezred · 04-01-2013, 09:38 PM

The silver connector and the original fittings are the same size, so they will not fit together...
