Just installed the TBS, and had a bit of a struggle reattaching the tube from the PCV valve to the fitting on the air intake.
Has anyone replaced the rigid factory tube with something that fits better, like maybe pressure tubing or stainless-wrapped?
I'd hate to have the PCV tube pop off at 80mph......
TIA!!

I just went to the local auto parts store and bought a six-inch piece of 3/8" (I think) rubber line and made an extension. I cut the plastic stock tube in half, and slipped the rubber line in the middle.

Pretty much what Don said. Except I replaced the entire factory hose with 3/8th inch rubber line. Just removed the ends from the factory piece, cut the hose the length I needed it to be and put the ends on the hose.
