I am looking for the part number and a means to find the sleeve that fits between the pancake air filter Stillen uses in the V1 kit (I have one) and the V1 itself. I have tried to make my own, but have failed miserably. If anyone knows of a readily acquired substitute hose or something that fits between the blower and filter and can be used to attach the panacke to the blower, let me know.

 

Isn't it this item in the stickies?

(1) Silicone Hose, Blue - Æ3 ½” air filter to supercharger 407000-11

 

407000-02 Steel Insert-air filter to supercharger
407000-10 Air filter with holes drilled
407000-11 Silicone Hose, Blue - dia 3-1/2 " air filter to supercharger
407000-14 Hose clamp #56
407000-61 Blow-off hose niplle
407000-65 air filter vent-45deg x 5/8" dia
407000-77 3/4" dia rubber grommet

intakehoses.com has very good (silicone) hoses at affordable prices. To get by, I would imagine this is something readily available at any Autoparts store or Home Depot. Chances are it won't be silcone, but it will get you by until you get the real deal.

 

So just the silicone hose would do?

No metal coupler or anything at all, the hose is enough to support the weight of the filter and keep it in place? wow.

Also, Home Depot and AutoZone----> tried and failed...

Thanks.

 

Steel Insert-air filter to supercharger 407000-02.
you probably also need that. It goes on the inside of the pancake filter then the silicone on the outside of the filter. You have to find a way to keep the sleeve inside of the filter inlet and not fall into the S/C. The sleeve never wants to stay in place and neither does the filter. I would suggest to skip the pancake filter and make an intake.

 

Oops. I misread. I thought you were asking for the silcone coupler hose. Yes, the sleeve is 407000-02. You'll need it.

 

Anyone know if that metal sleeve is still available from Stealin?

 

Ummmm... pick up the phone and call. Ask for Adam Hume, he's pretty familiar with the SC package for the Maxima.

 

You can just measure the inner diameter of the filter opening, then go to the hardware store, buy a pipe with the same outer diameter and cut a 2" length of it. It'll be the same thing and cheaper and faster.

 

True dat. I got the impression he already tried this.....and failed from post #1.

 

oops thats what I get for not reading. pwnd myself.

 

Last time I called (about couple months ago) they said adam hume no longer works at stillen. You could probably make your own sleeve, iirc it just has to be 3in diameter piece of pipe that's 2 inches long
