    Default SURE Aeros and Sidewinder setup

    I recently have the SURE Aeros and Sidewinder setup in my MPS6 (05). Well, the only problem i faced was reconnecting the factory hose to the Aeros. It was too short and doesn't reach the Aeros. So i ended up buying an insulated hose from Repco for like $20 and then measured it so it would fit into the Aeros.

    Here are the pics:

    Anyone with this setup experience this kind of problem? Btw the car drives normal and no problems encountered. Great sound!
    It just bothers me that I had couldn't reuse the factory hose. And seems like the guys from the U.S have no issues with this at all.

    Thanks in advance.

    Thinking there might be a issue here with the 2005 model. Since in the US, they only have Mazdaspeed 6 in years 2006 and 2007. So I wonder if the 2005 model has a slightly different configuration...Can anyone confirm this?
    Might follow this up to SURE.

    The 05 and 06 is different, Mark from SURE Motorsports told me when I wanted to buy the "Return" recirculation hose from them.

    Oh this is the other hose... I thought you were talking about the BOV recirc hose.

    Well you can always replace that hose with breathers

    A breather is a very small filter much like pod filter but used to vent oil vapors to the atmosphere instead of back in to the intake system. I would prefer a catch can setup :-)
