[QUOTE="TacomaJD, post: 698299, member: 1780"] Trying to get this Malibu switched back to oem air box setup and get rid of this piece of **** cold air intake some fool put on it before I got it. The engine cover has the tube that attaches to the throttle body made into it, so I found an auction on ebay that had what appeared to be everything I needed to swap it back to oem. Guy even had a pic of the wrecked car the air box set came off of. I get the parts in, realize there is an inlet on the backside of the air box (firewall side), so I go back to pics of ebay auction to check, and sure enough, the car it came off of has a black hose/tube that my car does not have. Wtf is it? Same damn car, same engine, although he said it would fit my year car, but maybe the car was 1-2 years newer than mine and they added whatever that tube is later? Should I be able to just install the air box set like normal and just block off that inlet? Provided it will fit, that is. Looks like everything lines up to make it fit. Just haven't went to switch it before I figured out what that black tube was on the other car. Pics below, black tube in question circled in yellow. I've looked at other pics of cars like mine and they don't seem to have that extra tube/inlet.
