I think that the "accordian" style hoses are killers with your set-up. The after-market intakes have smooth pipes that enhance air flow. Those OEM "hoses" do little for decent air flow.

Umm.......Not coffee cans! Phenolic tubing designed for (large) model rockets! Wrapped in a steel skin and insulated...

Yeah...Easy to covert over to 2.75" silicone. More pics in my CAI album at the link below..(2) 45 degrees angles, a foot of straight hose and a few couplers to tap the PCV fitting into from http://www.siliconeintakes.com/index.php?osCsid=41081a7fa378234022cce2b1e50fd5b8
