Today I installed an mrev2 and plenum spacer on my z. When I was reattaching the nismo intake I think I pushed a little too hard on it and may have broken something. It doesn't look right to me but I never rely looked at it before. The way it sits now is the hose (the part with the little foam thingy) just kinda sits above the pipe below it (the very last pipe thats bolted to the bumper). Sorry I don't know the names of all these parts. Anyway, could anyone tell me if its broken (which I'm sure it is) and how to fix it? Thank you.


So i fixed it. Just moved the air filter to a different pipe. No idea why the air filter was where it was. There was no hole in the bumper for air to get in or anything.

 

Looks like you destroyed the bypass and converted to a hot air intake

 

Ah so thats what its called! I was gonna try an buy a new bypass but i didnt know what it was called. Ill probably leave it the way it is..its a lot easier to get to the filter to clean now.

 

You are also loosing 10 to 15 hp from the heat it draws.
