Default Air intake rerouting lines

I couldn't find any information on this so I am forced to ask here so I can stop having the ghetto fix I have now.


(sorry if the picture doesn't work when I first post haven't done this before)

The factory air box has a small black box with two hoses attached to it. These hoses then route into that metal bundle which contains the breather line. In the picture it is dangling. How do most people relocate this so that it isn't at risk of hitting my pulleys.

here is a link to the photo on google drive https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B13...ew?usp=sharing

I have ziptied mine to the crossmember bar before. I believe it has some smaller holes you can use.

A few years back i disconnected these lines for a valve adjust...put them in wrong...the air pump worked all the time...there are only so many of these lines with only so many choices....like a 50/50 chance of error, so give it a try, the right way works immediately with no change in the way it runs or the trouble light coming on...you can also look at a service manual to see how they go, there must be a picture on a page somewhere here.

Did you do anything to get more slack in the lines they seem pretty short

Now that I think about I replaced them because the eventually got cut by the pullies, so I ended up getting longer lines

There is a small hole on the right side of the crossmember that accepts a screw so you can use a bracket to get the lines out of the way. The passwordjdm intake install has some visuals, they include longer lines though

Do you know the size of the lines by chance?

i hope that I am talking about the right lines here but you're asking about the two lines that are attached to the hard lines near the top of the picture right? one forks to the left and down towards one of your pulleys and another goes into your black box (I think that is the air control solenoid). if these are the lines then they have 4mm inner diameters. i bought replacement hoses on ebay for dirt cheap (maybe a dollar a foot or something) that fit perfectly. I essentially had to replace all the hoses for my K&N FIPK intake and these were two of them. PM me for a link if you're interested.

Thank you for the info that is a good reference. I hadn't even thought about the coolant line yet I should probably just delete the hardliners all together
