I lost the web adress of the company sounded like "air flo" for the reducing elbows and reducer made out of rubber, To build induction for the throtle body.

I think this is the one you're were looking for. I got everything to fab up my CAI here. I'm guessing the other sites probably offer the same items.

Could you show me a pic of what you made, and possible which parts they are, like diameter, length, etc.

We were discussing this on TGO about how the fbodmotorsports $250 kit wasnt too much, but looking at their prices, it looks like you can make it for under $100 easily....

simple.

the Throttlebody OD is ~4"
the stock LS1 MAF OD is ~3.5" on both sides (the larger MAFs are ~4")

what i used was a short radius (tight curve) 90* elbow that was 4" at one end (for the throttlebody) and 3.5" at the other end (for the MAF)


now pick out any of about 100 K&N cone style filters.. i went with a HUGE one that had a 4" outlet.. this is because it will eventually be feeding a turbo, but for now, its just huge.. lol.

if your K&N outlet is 4" then get a 4" tube...
if your K&N outlet is 3" then get a 3" tube... ect

a 45* tube is what that kit uses..

now to go from the MAF to the K&N+tube assembly you just need a hump hose.. they make 3.5" to 4" and 3.5" to 3" and most other combos you'd need...

Here's a pic of my setup, pretty much what Mr. Dude described. Just like him we went with a big Filter. Thought about putting another elbow on it so the filter would be down in the fender area. Decided that while it might get a little cooler air, the extra elbow might actually decrease air flow and it's a daily driver so concerned it might get some water exposure too
