I figured it had to be a vacumm leak since it just happened when I installed the AFE intake. I inspected the boot and low and behold, cracks! It actually is a big hole..

I'm thinking of ordering some silicon intake boots so I don't have to see this again. Looks like in 2010, the lower boot was replaced but not the top one.

Bollocks dude!

At least it's the upper one and not the lower one that has to be replaced.

Speaking of silicone version, is it supposed to have a longer life? Who carries such an attractive alternative?

Giya,
Stett Perf makes one

its $155.00 and backordered. I emailed them to ask when they will have it back in stock. I need one before Nov 17th Trackday. I already ordered a new fuel filter and new OEM elbow. It's cheap enough to just install for the time being.


The silicon wont tear and crack the like the rubber one. You basically wouldn't have to replace that boot anymore.

I'm sure sourcing one of these must be a pain.. :innocent


But those Strut tower reinforcements look AWESOME.

:thumbsup

Sounds like a worth-while investment if you're willing to wait a bit. How often do the OEM boots go? I've noticed my upper one is showing cracks at 90k but who knows how long ago that started.

Well I already ordered an OEM upper boot for the time being. If stett replies, I will order the silicon one.

They tend to go out pretty often. Especially with an aftermarket intake that isnt bolted down. My lower boot was replaced in 2010, I already see minor cracking already but no tears yet.a P0171/74 code is usually a vacuum leak in that area, DISA valve, intake boot or MAF.

Nah... they must have made at least a few hundred GTR race engines. There were only 10 street cars so those won't be easy to get, but why would you want the detuned version anyways
