Pictures to help explain what you're talking about? There are a lot of black hoses in the engine bay...

They are on the upside...need to see the Z emblem when looking at the engine bay...may need a custom fit for the side fit

You shouldn't be removing the black plastic harmonics boxes I believe... Unless you have their PCV kit too...

So you essentially are just removing/replacing the Accordion section, nothing else.

So is it ok to remove the silver thing from the silicone tubes? They could/would fit then right?

Thanks...

No? That's the connector between the two pipes.

That's the only way I can get everything fit together. No problem so far, but I only have about 500 miles with it

The silver connector and the original fittings are the same size, so they will not fit together...
