I had this installed last week on a stock IC pipe into the aluminum piping. I went for dyno tuning this weekend and was not able to tune for the alky kit because under pressure it was leaking at the nozzle. Thank God it was a 50-50 mix or I might have burned down right there on the dyno. I think it would be safest to have a hard IC pipe and then have a bung welded into it so that the braided line could be better seated. Now I'll have to wait until I get the whole thing fixed before I can even look into having it tuned.
I'm pretty disappointed but I realize that it's not a defect in the alky kit. It's just not the best way to tap into the IC piping. Just my .02 cents.

Yes, they're both hard but now my stock pipe has a hole in it. Also, if I go with an aftermarket pipe, I am reducing some bends, getting rid of the lousy stock hose sections and hopefully be able to get the nozzle closer to the throttle body. With a bung welded in place there will seem to be a less likely chance of something working it's way loose also. At least I'm hoping so. Only time will tell.......
