I recently got a Monsterflow (R-speed) intake, new but no instructions. There is a couple issues I need help with.
1. There is no connection on the monsterflow for the air bypass hose, so for now I corked it. Car idles too low when cold, I suspect it's this.
2. There are 2 holes in the middle of the rigid tube, 1 had a fitting for vacuum hose to VC, the other was just a hole with rubber grommet, so I plugged it for now with a screw (threads wrapped in tape to seal it).
3. The bracket to attache filter housing to engine is no where near long enough, where is it supposed to attach to ?
I have the carbon Monsterflow, so there are some design differences. For example, there is a connector for the bypass hose in #1.
Didn't really see a question for #2, though I guess "what's the 2nd hole for?" is implied. No idea here.
#3, in my case, the bracket attaches to the bolt for the front engine hoist hook.
Bought it off this forum, was advertised for 94-97.
Had no choice but to plug that hose for now, will plumb it over to the other hole for now. :dunno:
The bracket won't reach the PS or anything else, easy enough to fab a new one.
If I come across another for a 97 (anyone ?), I'll sell this one
If it doesn't fit and your car isn't running right with it....exactly why have you not put the OE intake pack on? Honestly, there is no gain to be had from changing out the intake piping, if anything you actually lose some torque.
