You push down on the clip? That would explain why I broke two of them! Not sure if replacements can be bought, but I have the hoses secured well.
If you push down on the clip you can literally remove the hoses in seconds with no fuss or potential breakage.

Yeah just compress the gray clip and it pops right off

Picked up a PMAS CAI from Lethal Performance down here in SoFLo. Removal of stock intake and installation of PMAS was pretty intuitive. Only 'issue' was massaging the angle of the MAF sensor - mine currently sits at like 7:00 if you're looking down the tube towards the bend.
Love the bawdy sound it makes at WOT and the car definitely pulls harder. Very pleased with the product. Thanks to Matt at Lethal Performance for 'hooking me up.'

Makes me wish I would have installed mine before my catless long tubes. I can't hear my Pmas at all over my headers lol. My MAF is also at 7:00.

Mine is at about 7 o'clock as well.

Yall keep saying 7 o'clock but I'm at like 5 o'clock. Do you mean 7 if you are on the drivers fender looking at the intake

How is the fit with a larger aftermarket coolant tank like the Mishimito?

The first problem I ran into is how they say (and show) to remove the tubes connected to the factory intake for the crankcase breather, sound tube, and whatever that third thing is.

The instructions say to remove the plastic clips but you do NOT want to do that. Instead you want to push in on the clip and remove the hose. I didn't know that though, and following the instructions I spent about fifteen minutes carefully removing one of those clips. Once I got it out I was just thinking "this can't be right, I almost ruined this thing!" and sure enough, one peek at a competitor's intake installation video revealed the easy truth!

Here is the pic PMAS includes in the instructions. Don't do this!





So, if you happened to have broken that clip... :doh:

Where do you get another one?

TIA-

Any parts store will have it. You get a set of like 5 or 6 for about 3 bucks. They are 3/8 Ford vacuum thingies.

Did anybody's PMAS come with the air duct from the heat shield to the grille opening like the stock box or JLT? I kinda figured it would have but I didn't get one so it's just open and not connected to the air flow path.
