Volant Intake with 102 TB... anybody running this I need a bellow.
I've decided to go with a Volant intake on my Trans Am. I'm running a FAST 102 with a 102 TB and I'm using a piece of Fernco from Home Depot as the bellow. I've looked at pictures of them online and the stock bellows seem to be bent quite a bit and I don't know if that fernco is going to be as forgiving. What bellow do I need and where can I get it? I'm running a SLP 85mm maf. Thanks

I'm using a Silicone Straight Coupling Hose between the Volant and my SLP 85mm MAF, from there I use a Silicone 'Hump' Hose to the TB. Also using SS T-Bolt Clamps on all the hoses from same vendor which not only have better holding power - but better appearance than regular worm clamps - plus they have an xtra smooth liner to protect from cutting into the silicone hose. Never had a problem with the hoses becoming disconnected due to engine torque...
I'm not running a 102 TB though so my hump hose would be too small for your app - but you can check here @ their site (HPS Silicone Hose) to see if they have something that would work for you:

If they don't carry reducing hump hoses - you could always buy the one that fits the 102 end, and 'shim' up the MAF side by fitting a piece of hose with ID that fits tight to MAF OD, but has a hose OD that fits tight to the 102 hump ID
