CAI and VAF

Post by hgallegos915 »

I cant seem to find anything that us big enough to plug into the baf(connector) I bough a big black connector to find out that the vaf hole was bogger. How do you cai guys connect a hose to the vaf?

I bought a 4" to 3" reducer and wrapped enough tape around the flange to get the 4" side to fit snugly over the VAF before tightening the clamp. It's not the best connection, though. I think the correct size would have been a 3.5" to 3" connector. I couldn't find any at the time I bought mine, so I went with 4". However, there seem to be alot of 3.5" to 3" on eBay right now:
