apexi intake question
hi, i just got my apexi intake kit in and im not sure where a certain hose goes (the pink one) and im making sure that the restrictor thing goes in the one with the blue line, is that right? thanks
(I installed my Apexi intake a few days ago.)
ok i read that and the blue line is the one that moos but what do i stick in it to make the damn sound stop its annoing as hell. Can I just plug it up?

Some more info on it:
That hose is the bypass air hose from the AIR CONTROL VALVE (ACV) that regulates the amount of secondary air injected into the Exhaust Ports and Catalytic converter. When air injection is required the ACV valve opens and the Air Pump (AP) is turned ON (buy the clutch engaging) when less air than the total output of the AP is required the ACV cycles rapidly open/closed and the extra air is vented out the bypass tube (this produces the mooing sound) Throttling the air this way is MUCH easier on the AP, pullies & belt than cycling the clutch rapidly to control the airflow. plugging that tube will cause extra loading on the airpump, pullies and belt, and excessive pressure on the ACV. Much the same effect as removing the BOV would have on the TURBO-
is there anything else i can do to make it stop?
i took a tube and drilled some holes in it and pluged up the end peice. then i put it in the blue tube. my airpump is just getting air from the intake. whats this pil thing that i have to stick in?
