Title: What is this?
Post by: GaseJo on February 28, 2007, 11:46:32 AM
Hi All,

I am in the process of changing all my old pipes to silicon, I noticed this in a pipe

(http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p112/gasejo/DSC00288.jpg)

The pipe comes from the air intake and goes here (MARKED IN RED)

Now is this needed (i have Apexi air intake) if so can i remove from old pipe and fit into new silicon pipe?

Cheers Garith.

It comes with the Apexi filter kit and the instructions show that you should push it into that pipe shown.  Not entirely sure what it\'s purpose is though.

It\'s to try and stop the "mooing" noise that the airpump makes.
