Can we order this now or should I wait for the new thread on it? I haven't found my perfect SRT yet but might as well start getting parts lined up. BTW I have a dyno in the shop so I will be getting a base line and then dyno each part as it goes on to document mods for the forum as I add them.
In for the better just let me know when to send the money.

So there I was just a couple of hours ago getting onto the ramp to join the freeway traffic and just tipped in the throttle slightly and ::::booom::::: I get the dreaded restricted performance and the CEL light. Noooooooooooooooooo! I got home and see below for what I found. This was a problem before until Mafioso started sending out a hose clamp supposedly fixing this problem. Uh uh. As you can see, it still can rupture. The codes I pulled was P0174, P0171 and P1111. I htink most experts here would agree this is the cause.
My shout out to Mafioso is that you need to find a more permanent fix to this - obviously your choice of parts is not working out well. I'd hate for this to blow up when you're cruising in the middle of nowhere.
I think you owe it to all of us who bought your product to find a way. it's an easy enough fix I'm sure - just find a fitting that is strong enough to withstand the vaccum pressure and heat in this area. Just a heads up.
I'm putting the stock intake back until I figure out what to do. I just can't trust this setup especially I drive a lot of highway miles between AZ and NV.

I have one of the first ones sent out, with the hose clamp, in 90+ degree heat and have yet had a problem with mine?
After looking at your picture, it seems you might have put undo pressure on the rubber. I noticed it was a tight fit, but I made sure that the hose was pointed into the correct direction with no extra force on the side.
