Has anyone else noticed that significant plastic air hose constriction by means of a pinch right before entering the intake manifold on the engine? This is way past the turbocharger section. Follow the air hose after it leaves the turbocharger and goes back to the radiator for cooling. From the radiator the hose goes back to the engine (this is where this constricting pinch can be found). Soon after the air finally finds its way into the intake valves. Looks like the engineers were caught by surprise trying to stay clear of that plastic box right by it (not sure what's in that box as I could not figure out how to open it).
Still a great engine
but sad for the extra boost drop due to the significant constriction so close to the intake valves. I wounder if the earlier Colorado diesel models (2016s) don't have what I just talked about?
I figure I mention this just to put it out there for observation sake.
