CAI question

[hockeybawler]

Hey everyone, so I am making a CAI for my grand prix as after looking around the forum that is what everyone says to do but I have one quick question. Do you just plug up the vacuum line that went in the stock tubing or am I supposed to make a hole for it in the pvc pipe and seal it? Also if I am plugging it up what should I use to do that? Thank you all in advance!

im gunna assume you are 04+.

just make a hole for it in the tubing somewhere.

Yes I am, and do I need to seal it up just to make sure there are no vacuum leaks or is that not necessary?

[tod1d]

yes make sure its a tight fit or else unfiltered air would enter the engine

Alright I will do, thank you guys for the help and quick responses!

04+ I just put a hole in the rubber coupler with a small enough drill bit that it's really really tight to get in. And when I take the intake apart I just remove it from the plenum but leave it stuck in the coupler so as not to have it loosen over time.
