Don't quote me on this, but that might be the restrictor for the air pump hose (to help on the "mooing" cow sound).

I'm just posting to try and help.

I'm 99% sure it goes in this one, but mine still mooo's pretty good, so it IS possible I put it in the wrong one.

If I did, would someone smarter than me, correct my picture and indicate which one it SHOULD go in!

If it SUPPOSED to go in the one going to the airpump, I would guess it's supposed to go in this one which is why mine mooos still.

Are you talking about the two little aluminum circle looking things. I have a Blitz intake and I was wondering what to do with those?

Thanks

Unhappy Don't know either

but there is two of them with the Blitz kit. I assumed they were to the lines with the BOV and the other deal,(which are on the other filter)but I have't used them either.

I re-checked the diagram on the Apexi Intake directions last night. It definately indicated the restrictor pill being inserted into the hose that my first picture (blue arrow) points to.
