Thread: Badly Ripped Air intake Hose

My air intake hose is ripped badly at the end where it goes on the throttle body. What other kind of hose could I use to replace it.

Already tried and all of the cars that had the 3.8 engine. The air intake hose was missing

or buy a open cone filter and 5 bucks worth of pvc elbows and a coupler at home depot.

then you want a 3 inch street pipe, the small end is 3 inch, the fat side is 4 inches. so make sure you get a 4 inch filter to fit the fat end.

Thanks my man

So you have a 4in coupler on the throttle, a 3 in pvc in the middle and a 3 in coupler on the air filter end?

how to hang the pipe if you want to paint it. sand it first to scuff it up. then paint it.

but see the fat side at the bottom thats the 4 inch side for the air filter.

How long did that filter from autozone last you
