Injen intake problem, WTF Options

[YellowTwo]

Okay a friend installed this intake a while ago on my car, but I knew he did it wrong so today I was trying to fix it. I have looked everywhere and read the directions and still can't figure this out:



Is that gold valve thing supposed to be open like that?

I used to have that black hose on the left connected to it from the valve cover. But the directions say it's supposed to be connected to the intake, not the gold valve. So I fixed that (as shown in the pic) and now I have no idea what is supposed to be there. Should I just put a little breather filter over it or something? But then that shouldn't be the correct way since I would have to buy that separately...

Hi.
I have the same problem. I bought my Injen intake about a year ago. When I installed it, I wasn't sure what to do with this open gold thing. Plus, my car was very very loud when accelerating. I think louder than I should be. So any suggestions would be appreciated.

Do a search on "Injen Intake" in the database. There were plenty of topics discussing this. You're supposed to connect that valve with a hose leading to the intake. Check bojangles_8686's profile or others with injens on their GT's. Their pics in their profiles might help and clear out any confusion.

Hope that helps.

i have the injen intake on my GT. i cut some extra hose to put around the gold valve. i then closed off the hose with a cap. you can see it on my pics. its not really a problem and you won't lose performance.
