The TMS E36/Z3 6cyl Intake Tube Plug is intended to be used in a variety of applications ranging from ASC delete, deleting the idle control valve in a car with a aftermarket engine management system, re-routing the PCV hose to a catch can, aftermarket supercharged engines, or simply plugging one of the hose provisions in the E36 6cyl intake tubes. It also works great as a coolant hose plug. The diameter of the tip is 20mm (just over 3/4"). A low profile Oetker compression clamp is included. The plug can be drilled and tapped for a small air temp/water temp sensor, pre throttle body vacuum/boost/MAP sensor barb, or water alcohol/nitrous/methanol injector or barb. Works with M50, M50TU S52, M52, S52 throttle boots and may work in other applications with a 20mm hose.

If you're seeking to eradicate vacuum leaks and enhance the overall airflow of your intake system, look no further than this comprehensive kit.
The M52TU/M54 air intake boots have gained notoriety for their tendency to crack, resulting in vacuum leaks, triggering check engine lights, and causing various performance issues. The soft rubber boots are constantly exposed to high temperatures from the engine, leading them to become brittle and prone to cracking over time. These cracks permit unmeasured air intake beyond the airflow meter, resulting in rough idling, sputtering, or even engine stalls.
This kit offers a solution by providing both lower and upper air intake boots/hoses for a complete repair. Additionally, as a bonus, the kit includes an ECS Exact-Fit High-Flow Air Filter to optimize your vehicle's intake tract.
