restricted throttle body I was wondering if there is a smooth rubber coupling for a stock ls1 throttle body between maf and throttle body? The stock rubber is like an accordion and seems to be restrictive. I thought, at one time, I saw a smooth straight coupling. any helps thanks.

Fernco is probably the best bang for the buck bet.
Although, it looks like you spent $5.
I want to change mine (I use the same stock one as you're describing) but I really prefer the OEM look. Haven't really found anything that looks better yet.

The stock bellowed coupling is not restrictive (the bellows just bunch up, air just flows past them)... also, it allows the engine to move easier without breaking your lid.
