I measured the Airaid plastic piece at 4 1/4"......your saying the silicone fit right over it? I ask because I couldn't get 4" rubber to fit over that Airaid plastic piece

 

and how did the bungs in the silicone get there? did you add it, or order it that way?

 

fit right over. again, tight, vasoline made it work. The ID of the hose is 4", so I am sure there is some flex to the remaining 1/4". Maybe the silicone is more forgiving than the rubber. I know when buying the silicone I had a choice between rubber and silicone.


I cut holes in the tube then used black silicone rtv to seal them up. The holes where already fairly tight but I figured the rtv would help seal and probably give more of a "factory" look to the bungs. The nitrous one is the hardest as those that have nitrous knows it comes with these horribly small bungs.

 

thanks bro, I'll try a piece of 4" silicone and see what happens

 

another shot

 

no leaks on that setup?

also what did you use to hold your meth and nitrous nozzles in the tubing?

 

Deweys tool box

Drawer 1- Duct Tape
Drawer 2- Silicone Sealer, two different colors
Black- For the factory look
Silver- For the bling to match the foil
Drawer 3- JB Weld
Drawer 4- Vise Grips & Cresent Wrench

 

Don't leave out the Vise grips. His son has a nice set of wrenches up on the hill. lol

 

I keep forgetting you have had the priviledge of seeing the wrecked shed. I actually don't use JB that much. LOL, I did plug up a header leak with some funky high temp stuff though.

Don't forget, and big hammer and screw driver and a no-bounce mallet.


No leaks that I can tell, the meth nozzle has rubber bung that is tight. The meth nozzle has to be crammed in. The silicone goes around the edge for that "factory look" and seal. The nitrous was definitely tricky due to the size of the bung, I just made the hole to small and forced the threaded part in. Put the nut on, applied silicone and wallah. Little armor all and you'd never know.

 

OK, it's clear that was/is a tight fit AND can be done!

hope you don't mind if a copy your setup brother
