Default Where are you guys getting your intake tubes/hoses?

Subject pretty much sums it up

I'm needing a 4" ID silicone or rubber 90 degree hose from the TB and a straight piece of 4" of either aluminum or plastic or whatever you guys are using with a 4" coupler

thanks!

I get my rubber elbows and Aluminum Tubing from Jags that run (JTR).

But like the others stated Intakes.com and many others places, try a search. This has been asked before and many sites have been listed before.

For aluminum tubing or at least something that looks like aluminum try using aluminized steel exhaust elbows for heavy truck applications. I hit this one with a buffing wheel and no one knows the difference until I tell them.

For the Rubber Elbows I use SiliconeIntakes.com

Good luck,

Couplers and clamps from intakehoses.com, plastic tubing is from Airaid. It's very easy to cut and comes in a huge U shape. You could build two or three kits out of one big bend. One day I'll have time to smooth it with sandpaper and paint it gloss black
