Default when you mean your acooridan is plugged, do you mean there is a hole in the accordian

and the hole is plugged ? if so where is the hose that goes in the hole?

Default yes. the AWE "accordian" has a hole. it is plugged. i do NOT have anywhere it can go to.

i have hbox.

im assuming AWE only has one version of "accordian" and for cars that dont need it, it gets plugged.

Default Umm, excuse me, but I wasn't the one that did that... It was our hero Mr. Piggie.

I was unaware that this was done to the accordian hose, I went to pull off the accordian hose to pressure test the intake and the grommet flew off. When I went to put it back on, it bounced off again, and I had thought that it had fallen into the dark recesses of the enginebay never to be found again. But unfortunately it had fallen into the intake. I would have never done that, and would never recommend anyone drilling the accordian hose. I did have fitting put on the back of stock Y-pipe and the hose is now attached there without grommets or any other type of jerry rig.

Default Hey, didn't know you were still lurking. Hello and sorry for poking fun.

It's an unfortunate incident. He did teh work, you did the pressure test, hard to place blame anywhere really...just one of those freak things.

Is your car running alright these days?
