    So, I found a bunch of small holes in the air filter housing. Not sure how they got there, but there is enough that I'm worried about sucking dirt and dust into the engine. This is a crazy expensive piece of plastic. But, I found some on Amazon that seem relatively inexpensive at about $100. Do any of you have experience with these cheap knock off air filter housings?

    Well I am not sure what brand off Amazon the Maf filter housing fell off in transit the replacement the metal clips snapped in a few weeks.

    I gave up cable ties hold things closed.

    Will Gorilla Tape fix your problem??

    I'm kinda embarrassed I didn't think of that. These holes are all pretty small. A good cleaning with alcohol then some gorilla tape would make it as good as new.
