Hey Guys,
Having a problem that happened all of a sudden. The blue elbow going to the throttle boddy keeps popping off under boost (8lbs). I get half way down the track and it pops off. I do make sure that the clamp is on tight but still keeps popping off. any of you all experience this?

I kept having the air filter pull away from the throttle body on my '98. It turned out that putting a new trans mount fixed the problem. Car engine was dropping in rear and rising in front more than it should.

Re: STS Users

Try putting on 2 clamps or get a t-bolt clamp.
