i just did a pvc cai and my only prob ids that the water tube touches the pvc is this goingto cause a problem?

 

Do you mean that your upper radiator hose touches your CAI? If that is the isue and your intake is PVC I would wrap it quick.

 

no the lower tranny hose
i should wrap it

 

I just wrapped my CAI. today with my heat-wrap. I had to use zip ties, because it was a bitch to keep it from slipping.
Anyway, So I wrap the hell out of my CAI,a nd then I took it for a 30min hauling a** session. I parked it and touched the only metal part showing on my CAI(next to the air sensor) and it was still cold as hell.
Damn worth it! I recomend this mod to anyone! Just remember to use gloves, the wrap is made out of fiberglass!!!

i did the heat wrap also i used metal clamps to fasten the clamps to the pvc cai my only problem is that i have the heat shielded air filter and the 3 inch rubber connector doesnt stay connected to the intake i tried clamping it i tried duck tape inside to get snugger fit but nothing works

I suggest a smaller diameter air filter. 2.75 or 2.5 should fit fine. If you really wanna stick with the 3" air filter opening, stop by your local muffler shop and ask them to make you a short 2.5" to 2.75" adapter, or contact www.thermalflex.com ask for doug scott. a 2.5" to 2.75" or 2.5" to 3" silocone adapter is available for under $20 in just about any color silocone.
