Z1 Silicone Post-MAF Intake Hoses Installed

moto_italia

Ordered the Z1 Motorsports Post-MAF Intake Hoses on Friday morning and Z1 shipped them out that day. FedEx dropped them at my doorstep on Saturday afternoon. Yep, they're a few bucks more than some others, but Z1 deserves credit for being a true supporter of the Z Car, and thus earn my support.

So, the process was simple after learning from others on this board (thanks!).
Tools:
- Ratchet
- 14mm socket (strut brace)
- 10 mm socket (airbox)
- Pliars
- Screwdriver
- Marvel Mystery Oil

Removed the upper strut brace which made it easy. Used a drop of Marvel Mystery Oil to make it easy to slide on the new silicone tubes. For those of you young guys who didn't have the joy of growing up in the world of mechanical fuel injection, Marvel Mystery Oil is the bomb (do people stay say that - jeez I'm old) for lubrication of fuel injection internals. I removed the 10mm bolts on the air boxes in the corner for a little greater movement. All in all, it took 45 minutes from start to finish.
