I just installed my intake last night, and i got a question about one of the air hoses. i was able to hook up the smaller hoses, but on my 91 240sx, there is a big hose under the front part of where you connect the throttle body hose. its a big one. i hope you know wut i'm talkin about, if not i'll take pix later. but wut do i do w/ that? i got it covered rite now w/ a peace of cloth, but i wanted to see wut you think i should do. let me know.

If Im correct that big hose goes to the IACV and needs to be connected to the intake because it sucks air into the engine.

Probably that one, its the biggest hose on there. How big of a problem do you think this might cause? my car is running fine, but maybe that might change in time?

thats were the engine gets its air to idle, it still gets the air, but its not going through the MAF so it should run very rough and act like an air leak when driving, you need to reconnect it
