Help with CAI on 5sfe GT - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #65007 8 posts Started by tt966g
I got a Cold Air Intake kit for my 95 GT vert and was wondering if someone ran into this issue. It has a hole for the crankcase vent but the oem goes from the crankcase to the throttle housing. My question is should I route the hose from the crankcase to the cold intake hole in the pipe and plug the throttle housing hole or should I just plug the the hole on the CAI pipe?

Any suggestions

Note the kit has two holes one for the sensor and the other for the crankcase

that hole is probably for the intake air temp sensor

if you look at your intake box iirc the sensor is plugged in there.

well then, just plug up the hole for the crankcase vent on the CAI. Leave the hose going to the TB. Its not that big of a deal.

I don't think it really matters.. I left my hose from crankcase to tb.. then plugged the one hole with my air temp sensor.
