VR6Pete 1,455 Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 You probably need the coupling silicon hose that goes on the BMC > MAF......I think a 76mm bit of hose will do the job. Merlin Motorsport sell them. Link to post Share on other sites
VR6-DUB 3 Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 Pete or anyone else can you confirm this please by any chance that a 76mm hose will fit . Link to post Share on other sites

VR6Pete 1,455 Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 I think both will fit - 76mm will need a bit of a hoof on.. Throttle body sizes OBD1 = 80MMOBD2 = 76MMmaybe getting confused, but theres not much in it Link to post Share on other sites
