The fitings are both 1/2". The hoses will fit if you play with them. You will need to ditch the crappy factory clamps and put on a screw style hose clamp to better secure them with though.
I thought you had that 90* fitting and it was secured by a nut inside?

No, definately not. There is nothing on the inside to come off(like a nut).

Question . . . . in this picture:

https://www.yotatech.com/forums/show...9&postcount=68

it looks like the tube doesn't fit quite square with the TB . . . it looks like it fits tight on the front side and loose on the back side . . . . . like the bend in the tube isn't right. Maybe that was just a test piece.

What is the interference with the dipstick, if any?

That picture was when I was test fitting. The pipe fits well. I'll ry to get a better picture tomorrow when it is daylight.

The dipstick is down a bit lower then the pipe so taking it out is no problem however you need to have the dipstick at more of an angle then you would with the factory piping to put it back in.

There is actually 6 people.Tacoma4Life06 is going to get one, as well as jsnby. I'm going to go ahead and change the rules a little and I hope you don't mind(i'm sure yall won't) Instead of lowering the price in $5 increments I am going to just offer them for $50 for the next 2 weeks and then the price goes back up.

You can order it through my website at the group buy price. www.toyboxfab.com

About to buy it, one question though. What is going on with this piece I circled in the picture? Originally it looks as if it is connected to some tubing, and now is it wide open? or capped off or what?

BTW, I just bought one. Do they come with installation instructions, I realize it is pretty straight forward, But I am not sure about the hoses and such.

When can I expect it buy?

It will ship this week. Most carriers take about 5 business days to get from Va to CA. It does not come with instructions but you can use the link that toferuop send for guidelines on installing.

alright awesome, im really excited to test it out. Also, what am I supposed to do with the intake silencer (i dont know how it works, so maybe it doesn't serve a purpose besides silence the intake haha) Do I need to cap it off or anything?

You can take it off or leave it in it's place. Either way the pipe will be bypassing it.

So does it work by when the air comes through the tube, some air goes into the the intake silencer, nothing is coming out of that hole I circled?
