View Full Version : Trilogy + php intake = rubbing. How can I fix it?

Just installed a php intake but since the upper radiator hose on the trilogy kit is pushed out farther, they now make contact. Should I cut the hose down? A little worried about screwing up the bend angle, flow, or length. Are there any other ideas?

Make sure the intake tube is not crooked in the silicone coupler at the throttle body connection, a slight angle there will be more off down by rad. hose

As stated, trim enough of the hose off where it connects to the tube to pull it away from the box.


Look at your pic of the length of hose at top and compare to Spectragod (https://www.mercurymarauder.net/forums/member.php?u=6626)'s pic. See how much shorter his is and the resulting spacing to the intake box?

Comparing hoses is one thing, calling out Darren’s short comings is just plain rude.

You just have to massage the hose into place for a good tight fit......:D
