The intake pipe in the picture has a tube coming from the top of it, I was looking at my car today and mine does not have it, only a hole where it used to be. Anyone any ideas why this is? notoriouslor has attached the following image:

Without that pipe your engine is essentially sucking in shit. I'd get a replacement or at least block up the hole in the main feed pipe and fit a filter to the ICV, its a 19mm or 20mm ID neck filter that you will need for the ICV ________________________________________ Goldie the track car.

If the pipe is not connected to the main intake plastic pipe, then it should have a mini filter on the end to stop sucking up shite (as already mentioned). Buy them from halfrauds for about a fiver ________________________________________ 1992 Onyx Black 205 GTI-6 2005 Honda S2000 (Sold) 2002 Audi S3 (Sold) 2005 Clio 182 Trophy (sold)

I ended up getting one from a kit car show for £7. Most breathers i saw were only 12mm too. ________________________________________ Goldie the track car.
