Same issue here. Had to drill on end and install nut/bolt/washer combo. Very easy to cross thread or jam up with debris.Has anyone ever had a problem with the two bolts that connect the MAP tube to the airbox on the Roush kit? I was trying to put them back in and neither one would go in past about half way. One of them got stuck, and I ended up cracking the airbox trying to get it loose. I guess I am going to have to get a new part from Roush, but want to make sure I dont just have the same problem again.
So it seems its going to cost about $250 to replace the two pieces. You can't see it with the top on and for how big those bolts are they dont seem to be doing much. You think it would be ok right now with just the one bolt and doing something to patch the hole?
I never ran with only one anchor point.
Yeah, of course I looked at the manual after the fact. I thought it was just an air filter, how hard could it be. The tube was unclamped and unconnected at the time. I have the piece that broke off and you can see why in wont go in anymore. Must be cross threaded as the bottom of the bolt is going into the threading at the end.I've had my MAF tube out of the air box a couple times without damaging. The air box has always been out of the car while I secured the MAF tube bolts though. Pulling the air box probably isn't necessary, but I wouldn't recommend trying to secure the MAF tube to the box without first unclamping the intake boot from the MAF tube.
Page 66 shows the install the air box. I have good luck removing mine following the reserve order.
