I was doing a search for something else awhile back and I came across a few threads that were pretty old talking about this orange cap people were ordering for free and it blocked off part of the airbox. Does anyone have any info on this? From what I read the company got hip to people asking for samples and they stopped giving them out. Any current rennlister that could shed some light on this would be appreciated. Where could I buy one of these orange caps? Edit: Here is a thread title from 2003 "Got those orange plugs 273-1P now what?"

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Or you could beg borrow or steal one from a fellow rennlister and save yourself $225. IIRC Niagra Plastics would send 2 free sample caps with each request, so there are a lot of spare caps out there.
I got an orange cap a couple of years ago. It makes the intake sound at WOT but not much else. Someone here got a couple of PVC parts from Home Depot of Lowes and used them in place of the orange cap. I'll see if I can find that thread/post.
