Does this hose connect to anything?
...I was under the hood the other day and noticed a hose that is connected to nothing. Is this normal?

Yes this is normal. This hose is a breather hose that points down and is not connected to anything. Have no fear.

The hose is located near the large breather hose on the front valve cover. It appears to connected to the transmission at the bottom. It is a hard rubber hose that has it's open, upper end molded to face downward.

for those who has a 5 spd and bought the upper pipe from ebay, you guys mention the pipe having 4 holes, am I suppose to connect the hose mention above in the 4th hole??? or leave it???

 

it is normal on automatics, not sure about manual transmission models ?

 

I second that. There will be a thin hose that curves slightly downward that does not hook into anything. I don't know why there would be a difference w/ manual, but I have an auto, so I couldn't say for sure.

 

Justin, Apparently the 4th hole on the E-bay intake tubing is for Manual Transmission coolers. Automatic's do not have these, so I used a 3/8" plug from Checker Autoparts...

If you have any questions, call me on my cell.

Thanx ryan, I call you as soon as I get it from the mail.

 

what's up man?

i installed that upper pipe like you did.
i love the low end power i gained.
however, i now get this very loud sound. specially when i go up to 40mph.

sounds like a very loud wind conbustion.

i 'm going to put back that resonator and see if that is where the loud sound is comming from.


please advise?????
thanks,
