    The long plastic hose goes from the bottom intercooler outlet to the throttle body.

    Check the condition of the plastic hose, the tend to perish on the throttle body end.

    They go thin and tear where the jubilee clip goes on.

    Nope and you can't buy them new. I made a few in 2.5" stainless.
