I have heard of a lot of guys getting a 3" to 4" coupler at their local hardware store and making them work. You have to open it up a little on the 3" side to get it over the MAF but the 4" fits well on the TB. I put one on a buddy's car and it did the job.

1" = 25.4mm

you say you have an 85mm MAF....do the math

85mm = 3.35"

so giving a little extra for the thickness of the housing...a 3.5" should fit no problem.

90mm = 3.54"

so giving the extra thickness of the outside of the TB mouth, a 4" should fit


wow...hard....

These are real flexible not hard like most bellow. So it makes them go on with ease.
