Did you ensure there was no caps or anything in the pipes before fitting?
They do have temporary blanking caps for shipping and or fitting IIRC with some. Obviously they need to be removed prior to and or during fitted. They are often used for cleanliness during fitting too, to prevent any dirt getting in right until the point of actually putting the pipe on. As with Defenders it’s easy to get some dirt go in pipes just fitting them, I sometimes use a disposable glove to put over the end of a removed pip unit refitted, obviously must be removed just before putting back on, but it stops anything getting in open ended pipes. ____\We|Will|Win/___ ____/🇬🇧🇺🇸\____ _//*⛽️🛢️⚙️🧰*\\_ |

There can be some that work there way inside, any possibility anything was accidentally left when fitted?
Check the MAF wiring nr the plug and you can also clean it. ____\We|Will|Win/___ ____/🇬🇧🇺🇸\____ _//*⛽️🛢️⚙️🧰*\\_ |

UPDATE :
Removed both LH and RH intercooler hoses - no obstructions Checked dirty air feed to air filter box and hose to turbo - no obstructions Air flow through intercooler via smoke test confirms no blockage What else should I be checking ? |
