Default Fernco size?

What size fernco do I need from Home Depot to run from the stock MAF to the stock TB.

Thanks,
Justin

I want to say it's 3" to 4"...but I'm not 100% positive on that.

3" to 3" cost about $5.50 just did it last week. Its a tight fit but it works well when its on. I dont know if you read the how to for it but it helps to trim about 1/4" off one half of a side and mount that facing up on the maf.

Maybe that's what was wrong with mine. I couldn't get it to line up at all.

It will never be a perfect fit...it will not completly push all the way on to the maf but it will have enough surface to clamp down.

i just did it 2 days ago as well. it is hard to get over the TB. and i did trim a little bit overo the MAF. it isnt perfect however it does look better than that accordian hose and it was cheap.
