FAQ
Is this Fleece FPE-UNV-INTAKE-SENS-5 elbow a direct fit for my vehicle?
No — this is a universal elbow designed for use in custom intake systems. It is not vehicle-specific and requires that you verify tubing size (5″), routing clearance, and sensor positioning.
Will this elbow allow me to install a MAF sensor easily?
Yes — the built-in sensor mounting boss provides a convenient location to mount common MAF or MAP sensors. You’ll still need to match the sensor flange and wiring harness to your system, but the path is pre-jigged for you.
What material is this elbow made from, and is it strong enough for performance use?
This elbow is made from a molded plastic/rotomolded engineering-grade polymer, designed for custom intake routing. While it is not cast aluminum, it is built for high-flow, high-use applications in engine bays and features sensor mount provisions and secure installation hardware.
Does this elbow come with hardware or clamps included?
The elbow includes three 10-32 × ½″ stainless steel socket-head screws for the sensor mount boss. Clamps and intake tubing are sold separately.
Can this elbow support turbocharged or high-boost intake systems?
Yes — when installed correctly and paired with quality intake tubing, clamps, and sensors, this elbow is used in many high-flow applications. Ensure proper sealing, routing, and clearance for best performance.
