tank before ..

and after...

eh?

this one is smaller and WAY WAY WAY better.

it's not metal i guess, it's composite..?
and it fits great as you can see.

i bent the hard line in the 2nd photo to make the stock hose work.
really easy 2 do, the hardest part was getting the hoses off.

The link above for the 1.5" Hose is INCORRECT. The inner diameter needs to be 1.75"

here is the correct link...

http://www.siliconeintakes.com/product_ ... 9301d2eb1f

I purchased the wrong hose from the link half way up the page... if you buy that hose, it will NOT work!!!!

On my second time through, i actually purchased this hose....

http://www.siliconeintakes.com/product_ ... 9301d2eb1f

With the 45 degree outlet on the hose, and the 45 degree outlet on the VF11, this will make the final output placed at 90 degrees, which is where my samco hose sits out of the intercooler y pipe.... i believe this will work better, and i'll only need a straight piece of metal pipe to connect the two silicone pipes together... (samco and this new 45 bend silicone one)
