A Different Accord intake question
OK guys, I ordered and just received my accord CAI from that same guy (or so I think) on eBay that Dummy and ChrisCheezer got theirs from (looks the same as ChrisCheezers in the pics) but there looks to be an extra nipple on the piping. Theres a larger one that the hose fits onto, but then there is a smaller one on the top part of the intake tube near the TB end. There doesn't look to be two hoses from the engine to attach to the tube. Wondering if anyone else's accord intake tube had 2 nipples on it? Any help would be much appreciated.
Grazi!

DUDE i ordered that same kit with the 2 nipples i thought the same thring when i got it. Me and and Joey bout same kit for our VG;s what we did was take a simple tin snips and cut that bad boy right off. Then slid that whole section into the rubber adapter. It covers the tiny hole so u dont have to worry about any leaks.

Well, thanks fellas! I knew I could count on my fellow VG/Accord intake owners. It looks like a trend is starting, and for 40-50 bucks instead of 150 or so, why the heck not!
I'll see what I can figure out, I may seal that second nipple off or just cut the darn thing off. I'll get some pics up for you guys some time later. Thanks again!

I cant just go hookin random hoses up to the 2nd nipple. Nipples are not things that you just play around with you know.....not in this situation anyway. I'm just gonna snip the dang thing off, seal the hole, sand it down and cover it with a homemade sticker....that'll slap on an extra 15 hp anyway!
