I have a 3" silicone intake. When i put it all together the connections like the T.B.-->90 elbow, 3"silicone to MAF, 90 elbows to HVRS and so on were SUPER tight to get the silicone pipe on there.
It was so tight that it could only be done with all parts off the car and a bit of dish soap to help.
so my question is, after about 1.5-2 years on there, does the silicone start to forum/mold to the part? what I am getting at is if I take the silicone off, will it still be so hard to get back on..or has the silicone moulded/formed to the part?
Random pics of the silicone in question...
