Forge Motorsport Intake Hose

I ordered the Forge Motorsport Red Silicone Intake Tube, it's a perfect fit. No noise increase, it definitely increased the responsiveness of the throttle. Air flow is much smoother. I'll post mileage soon.

I know you're joking, but the OP didn't actually say he saw the air flow being smoother. He simply inferred it was by noting the improved throttle responsiveness.
