Hoses just came in today. They shipped from china so obviously it took forever. Didnt do much with it yet cause ill be out of town this week. Just kinda looked around and tried to identify where some would go. Confused about some of them but i might find out while im replacing the other ones. Wish me luck and I plan on posting a pic after im done. Should be easy to see as they are red.

I want the same kit just haven't ordered it yet. But I did the vacuum lines in red look nice but for the vacuum line I had to put zip ties on each end to keep from coming off.

i will be doing the same thing after this kit. You should have maybe gotten small metal clamps instead of zip ties. Looks more professional and you dont have to cut them to get the line off.

Alright so right now im working on the intake portion of the install and I ran into a problem. The guy before me had a hole in the old intake plugged with some silver duct tape. Idiot. so with this new intake i dont want to use tape obviously so im just wondering what i can use to plug the hole. I would say its about half inch in diameter. I would use a plug but I wouldnt want it to to get blown out or something. Any ideas or anyone with experience in this would be great guys.

is it an actual hole that could be tapped? or a vacuum port? if its a vacuum port, just get vacuum caps from ur auto parts store of choice (a combo pack is only about 5 bux for like 20).
if its a hole, id tap it (remove intake) and put a plug in it. is it in the plastic portion or aluminum? that would help in finding a way to fix it.

Jbweld followed by some red rtv. Only get red, or the one above but red rtv will work, or use some sillicone in a tube. But jb weld first, then cover it with red rtv. Should work fine
