bandmmorris Posted November 21, 2022 Posted November 21, 2022 I need to replace the air intake hose between the air cleaner and turbocharger on my 2007 Monaco Camelot. It has the Cummins ISL 400 engine. Any information or advice would be appreciated.
Bill R Posted November 22, 2022 Posted November 22, 2022 Which section needs to be replaced? For my coach there is a hump hose that comes off the air filter outlet that connects to a "L" hard pipe and then to a cobra head connector on the turbo inlet. Check out https://www.intakehoses.com/
bandmmorris Posted November 22, 2022 Author Posted November 22, 2022 Mine is the same. Do you recall the inside diameter of the top hose. It is difficult to measure and is somewhere between 4 and 5 inches.

This is what I bought for that https://www.ebay.com/itm/185539049159

I have just installed the new one. The old one was exactly the same and OEM. So over 16 years it had a little loss of rigidity but not much. I had a separate issue that you can read about in this thread as to why I replaced it. It was more PM than anything while upgrading my intake filter size. What is the issue with your connector? Is it a Cobra head design?

The problem is mine has a split in the end of it under the clamp and I do not want to take a chance with sucking dirty air into the turbo and engine so I am replacing it.
96 EVO Posted November 22, 2022 Posted November 22, 2022 It sounds like this is the hose you need if it comes directly off the filter outlet. https://www.intakehoses.com/reducing-hump-hose-7-id-to-5-id.html
bandmmorris Posted November 22, 2022 Author Posted November 22, 2022 Mine is a 90 degree hose. It comes off the inlet to the turbocharger.

The truckers use rubber fittings and aluminum tubing. That's what i did. Edited November 22, 2022 by Paul A.
Solution Bill R Posted November 22, 2022 Solution Posted November 22, 2022 (edited) 2 hours ago, bandmmorris said: Mine is a 90 degree hose. The Cobra heads are designed where you do not have enough turn radius for a 90 degree. They are basically the same with regards to air flow capability, but your choice on whether you want to stay with the 90 degree or go with the cobra head. I know others with the 400ISL have the cobra head going to the turbo. Also given the design, the cobra head probably provides better support of the "L" pipe and may prevent cracking at the "L" pipe connection as you describe you have. Edited November 22, 2022 by Bill R Thought a little more about this.
