Default Well, I fixed the IC hose that popped off earlier today...

thanks to one of my employees that lives very close to my office. He got some tools and we fixed it. What happened apparently was the plastic pipe that connects the IC to the TBB broke it's mounting tab and from me beating the **** out of the car the hose popped. The plastic pipe was rubbing against the fan and cracked. So now I just have to replace that plastic pipe. What exactly is that piece called? It is the plastic pipe that a Bi-pipe replaces. I cleared the codes and drove home, roughly 22 miles and I got on it only when entering the highway. Everything seemed ok other than you can hear the air coming through the crack of that piece. I greatly appreciate everyone's advice, it looks like I got lucky this time.

Default I can send you both of them for free if I can find them in the garage.

I just need to hunt them down. I have a bipipe so they are just sitting somewhere in the garage collecting dust.
