Ben, for close to the price of a MM hose, you can buy
two silicone fittings and a manrel bent piece of
tubbing to make a tube that can house a port for a
BPV, the injector, and you'll never have to worry
about that crappy hose again.  You have to give the
fuel time to mix with the air before it gets to the
1st IM port.  If you mount it strait above runner #1
in the temp probe spot, it will never get into that
runner at WOT.
