Could you not use a heat gun to warm up the end of the hose to make it a bit easier to fit to the maf ?

It's all about the lube  :lipsrsealed:
Could have never done mine without a small amount of engine oil on the inside rim of the TIP (no puns intended and if you think of anything other than fitting a silicone TIP you have issues  :grin: )

I went in dry no lube needed !  :laugh: no pictures yet by the time i had a shower ect it was dark so i went for a drive  :evil: spooling is louder, recirc is louder the car feels like it pulls better throughout the whole rev range and i no longer have a shhhhh as i accelerate so leads me to believe the dodgy middle bit of the old tip was the culprit well and the fact it was caked in oil ! :lipsrsealed:
