What's up everyone!

Any tips on installing the CS 3.5in intake? I have the battery and battery box out currently along with the factory air filter. Having issues getting the inlet onto the turbo. There is one thick cable in particular that will not move and I don't want to force anything.

Also the coupler causes friction passing through cables so that's another obstacle.

Thanks in Advance
 
Yep. Coolant hose. Easy to extend; look up the htp extension kit to confirm the diameter and then just run to the parts or hardware store and grab what you need for a few bucks.

FWIW I had that gates connector fail on me after a few years (became soft and deformed and eventually broke) and left me stranded once. I've since replaced it with an aluminum hose splice and no issues in the last year.

Yeah that or a nice brass one is definitely a good way to go.
