Default SRT Intake GS430 Question!

Hopefully someone on the board here can help me. The middle hose of the 3 on the air intake, what size is that hose? 5/16? I got a 5/16 hose to replace the one that split on the engine part that is zip tied and hangs, but the hose would not fit onto that engine part. I was thinking of going up to 3/8 hose, but want to make sure that won't mess anything up. If a picture is needed, I'll take one tonight.

Actually, it is very hard to fit the middle tube in the sensor part with a 3/8", I think you should try a larger size... I made mines fit, but it was hard... Since it was the tube that it came with...

I got the 5/16 to fit on in the intake side, but it was on the engine sensor that I couldn't do it. 3/8 should fit no problem then at least on the air intake tube, it is the sensor that is going to be a PITA.
