DCI Install Question (Accordion Hose)
Does the DCI install look wrong? I am thinking this because the accorion tube dousn't look right. I might just be paranoid?? Thanks

The black intake piping should be all the way down into the accordian tubing. Pics are a little too close to tell, but it seems to be done correctly..

Its fine, as long as the filter dont rub against other objects. You wont really be able to slide that cone down much further before it hits the air duct. Youll want that flexiblity from that plumbing.

yup there is a slight oval shaped bent! looks normal to me, you do have to wiggle the coupler in there pretty hard. or else the two filter will have a hard time fitting. make sure you dont push your coupler to deep inside the filter!
