Default Fernco coupling part # needed
Curious to what Fernco coupling I will need to adapt to my 85mm MAF then to my 90mm TB? My SLP one won't cut it obviously. Open to other suggestions if you guys are running something else. Part #'s if ya got them please

Thanks!

you can always use amazing google and search for intakehoses or turbo hoses and just find the right reducing coupler!

I think a 4" straight through fernco coupling from home depot should work.

Just take a trip down to your local hardware store and see if they have one that fits.

So I bought a straight 4 inch connector and a 4 x 3 and both fit like poop. There's gotta be something better available for this application. The hunt is on.

Awesome thanks for the responses fellas! I will check online because not a single auto parts store including Home Depot or Lowes carries anything.
