Issue with MAP 02 Dump and A/C hose ????

Anyone has trouble or fitment issues with this ?

Thanks in advance.

None. All you have to do is very gently coerce the AC line aside. The fitment is perfect.

its abad *** peice but man,... for the price and all seems like it woud fit better!

I slightly bent the A/C line, and used like 6 washers on the 4 A/C comp bolts to push the comp out a lil, had no problems after that.

I hate that we have to ask people to bend this line, but as you can see there isn't much room in there to route the dump tube without having the LICP fitment issues that competing products have We also have to make sure that the dump tube doesn't impede installation. I'm going to take another look at this and see if there is something we can do that we missed the first time around, does anyone have a spare AC line laying around?

I'm not an A/C expert but I believe you would have to release / recharge the system to change that line

Could you possibly roll the tube to make a transition to an oval?
