looks like ur CAI not touching the ac pipe at all!
so good
for cars that originally have the CAI, the ac pipe is bent differently...it goes underneath the CAI...not straight across at the top
that thing is called a heat shield
originally it was suposed to cover the exhaust manifold properly
check out the old lmst (the one with the noisy exhaust)
it doesnt use the 421 extractors like ours
...its also a 421...but very short...almost like a 41 manifold
the thing is when they installed the long 421 extractors for us, they nev redesigned the heatshield
just stuck the same old thing on our (even tho it doesnt fit anymore)
was that a stupid thing to do?
you betcha
anywayz,...the function of that little pipe at the top is for the cold start function of this car
(i have explained this in a previous version)
there is usually a silver foil hose that connects the 'little pipe' to the bottom of the air intake duct
check out the pic
explained a little it it
hope it helps
