My flexible air intake tube from the air filter to the throttle body has split. Does anyone know of a suitable aftermarket replacement or can you suggest an upgraded performance air intake system?

I don't know of anything aftermarket... there's not a ton of aftermarket support for your series of Q45 due to relatively low production numbers. For OEM check out www.orderinfinitiparts.com or www.infinitipartsusa.com

I would just likely replace it with stock one. Check out http://www.car-part.com/ for an inexpensive OEM one.

Can't find this part for a reasonable price anywhere.

Just need the hose hose ripped due to having a bad motor mount and being driven hard by last owner. Resolved problem for a while with various rigs. See no other solution than to replace it but part from dealer is almost 500 can't find it for under 3. I just need the large accordion hose that's it. I cant see having to pay 300-+ for that without any other option. Input?

Just a long overdue update. Used a similarly sized metal tube drilled a hole for the vaccum line lined it w rtv and shoved it in both ends of the air cleaner hose. Finished off w some electrical tape and header wrap runs like a dream. Cost me five bucks

I'm glad you got it sorted out! With the last Q45 produced over a decade ago, I'm afraid we're all working on our junior fabricator certifications.
