Airaid CAI Plug

[Eric]

For those who are running an Airaid CAI and the Boss 302S oil breather and want to delete the hose nipple from your CAI tube...here is a 15/16" plug that plugs the hole.

Awesome thanks. So this plug is relatively stiff? Wow $9.82 for shipping?

Rick,

It is flexible enough to get it in the hole, but stiff enough that it won't get sucked in (like a door plug for example). Should be no problem with the heat given its a firewall plug. Total cost was $15.83 delivered (UPS)...certainly cleans up the look.

So the existing stem coming out just pulls out? I tried pulling it out with slight resistance, didn't want to break anything.

Yes it pulls out but will be very tight. Try some lubricant like soapy water to let it slide out easier.

Perfect, I'll throw in my order tomorrow as I have a few other things to buy as well. Thanks again for the info.

I received my plug today and I'm happy to report it's very stiff and I think it will work perfectly plugging the hole. I'll install it this weekend.

Eric thanks for posting this.

Installed. I didn't want to pull too much on the breather connector out so I cut the grommet. The plug fits very tight and I had to use a screwdriver to stuff it into the hole and there's no way it's ever going to work loose. I was always a bit suspect how loose the breather connector was with the grommet so I'm glad I've put that behind me. And of course a couple of photos.
