hey guys! damn! i have problem on my INJEN intake they send me a wrong size of hose (the one i can connect to throttle body) when i check it on everything.... all the stuff are good to go but except for this one.... it has to be fitted correctly but this hose just slip through easily, it is like it has a gap of an inch or half on this hose.....


do i need to go to the auto shop where i bought this intake to return it or called the INJEN the immediately... i really hate this when it happen


help!!!

 

That's a huge gap! Take it back. Get your money back and buy it from someone reputable. How much was it by the way?

 

That is perfectly normal, mine and few others were the same way. Just put it on and crank down on the hose clamp and it should seal up just fine. No worries.

 

my hose fit perfectly with no gap. I believe the two hoses are 2 different sizes. i could be wrong.

 

ITS ok I intalled one and it was liek that to you just crank down the clamp and it will squeez the hose shut

 

it is normal just clamp down

 

moved....

 

if it is ok how come the hose when i tighten the clamp got crimple how it gonna seal the air pass through.... there something is not right......

 

that is true... its not a problem if the rubber expands but if you pinch it together tight especially if its thick rubber, its gonna leave tiny holes... and its an inch gap? that is a huge gap.... get them to replace it or aftermarket parts shop should have extras in different size i think...

 

go back to the shop and complain. check if the other injen hoses are exactly the same... or just replace it with something smaller

plus the hose are not suppose to be over sized, it should be sized enough to expand when installed...

 

I just installed mine 2 days ago. The two rubber pieces that you connect the pipes with are slightly different sizes, but not by much. On the throttle body I had to screw the band 95% of the way closed, it seals fine. You dont want it to crimp up, but it does have about a 1/2 inch of size difference to make up, the injen intake tube is bigger than the throttle body, so the rubber piece has to make up the difference. Just tighten the thing all the way up, if its still really loose, switch it with the other one.
