MY09 vs MY10 or USDM vs EU/UK

Chris`I · 05-31-2010, 04:42 AM

Hey guys,

Hope you can help out a Brit here. I have a set of Stillen Gen 3 Intakes, and went about installing them today. Only to find that there is an extra breather tube on one of my OEM intakes that doesnt appear to be on the Stillen tube or any of the install threads.

On my passenger side (your drivers side in the US, right hand intake looking towards the back of the car), there is another breather tube on the bottom of the intake, which isnt on the other side. The other side has a single breather just like the Stillen has on it. On the side which has two, there is the normal breather on the side, but also one underneath the one on the side, pointing directly down. Havent managed to get a good pic of it due to the location.

Anyone know if this is a MY09 vs MY10 difference, or is this an EU vs USDM difference? I ordered this a while back when there was the offer of getting the intakes free with the exhaust, which I think was just before the MY10 came out, in the belief that it would all just fit, having not seen anything about the MY10 changing the intake design

Ah I see, didn't realise it was just terminated with a box. Well that's a bummer too late to go fit them today. At least I will be quicker taking the bumper off next time around!

Thanks for the help
