Check your CAI (Stillen)

I took my car for an oil change they told me my ac line was about to blow ? What was happening was the stillen air box sits rubbing on the ac line...so what they did was just put a rubber hose on the line so it dosnt damage it. Hope this helps.

This was a known issue when I installed mine 4 years ago. Make sure it doesn't rub or it is very costly.

Didn't know the Stillen has this same issue of rubbing A/C line like the JWT pop chrgr. Good to know.

I used electrical wire loom tubing on my A/C line.

There's a lot of info and detailed pics if you search for JWT rubbing A/C line.

if it does break, what's the estimated cost to fix a broken AC line?

About $150 for the line, $100 for labor and another $100 to service the A/C system.

^^ That's a TON of headaches that can be avoided with a simple, less than $5 fix.
