Default Induction Hose fitting.

I have a new silicone induction hose to fit. I have done a dry run and cant seem to get it past the power steering resevoir

Anyone have any ideas? pics? Or how to guides?

If you think the power steering reservoir is a problem, just wait until you try and get it around the OE fuel lines. My dearest Scoob's got called some names in addition to me making several comments about how small Japanese fatherless men were laughing at me.

That fight alone has been enough to convince me to move to a parallel set up with fuel rails!

It's a right pain in the ****, you need to check the size of it against the flexi inlet pipe as mine turned out to be bigger, so have had to get a local hosing company to sort me out with some hoses to reduce it down to the right size.

good luck with that one,what a nightmare

as someone said,the only way to do this without any damage is to remove the inlet manifold
