Smoke at high revs (5500+)

It is actually a really easy thing to do. The biggest issue is with the plastic hose connectors. If you break the long one that goes to bank 2 it's not going to be a fun day. The short one is easy to replace. I always do it with the engine warmed up to get the hoses disconnected. Usually only takes me a half hour to remove & install a new one.

I think I read/saw that the updated AOS requires a longer hose to the second bank, but I don't yet have a part number.

It does require a different hose. I replaced mine... didn't want to spend the ~$35 for the part... fashioned an "extension" fromn some expensive specialty auto hose (~$18 for the length I needed) using the old hose and while it worked, it looked like crap... oredered from Pelican the proper hose.

You'll want that updated hose/part.

Thanks for the tip! I will definitely order it.

Just FYI. The hose you need is not the hose that goes to bank 2, although due to age it could be replaced. The hose you need is the short hose that goes to the manifold at the TB. Pelican has it listed as needed part with the AOS. I just saw you have a MY2000. You may not need anything. The hose was needed to convert flat AOS on the earlier cars to the new style AOS.
