Do you mean the air intake duct (part no. 14459AA224 - lists for $100 or so) - the part which actually connects to the intake on the turbo? Did you damage it? Replacement can be a pain, from what I have read - there are a number of aftermarket silicone replacements - those are easier to install (because they don't involve removing the intake manifold to get them in there - I think they cost ~200-275. iirc - Perrin and Samco both make them.

yes thats the part. I overtightned the clamp the the metal cut into the silicone/rubber. Crap. I don't really want to shell out 200/300 for a new one. thanks for your help!
