Hi,looking for some advice i have an Rbc manifold and a tegiwa airbox with scuttle panel insert.

I have just purchased a Tegiwa hose to fit between the throttle body and the airbox as the angle of the Honda pipe going into the airbox was not great,and the hose was split at the throttle body end.

I believe you need to trim some of the silicone hose to get it to fit correctly.

Can anyone advise me what end to trim and how much to cut?

I tried fitting it to the car and the bracket on the the left of the airbox does not line up and the airbox sits a bit high.

Thanks in advance for any answers.

cut the bottom end of the hose by about 1.5cm and it still seemed to long,so I took another 1cm of.

When I put the hose back on the hose kinked!proberly should have not took that last piece of.After a lot of messing about I managed to get in to fit ok thankfully and it looks good.

Cheers for your reply.
