Default 90MM intake bellows question???

What is everyone using for a bellows between a 90 mm tb and your maf? I am gonna use an 85mm maf with the FAST 90mm tb. And just in case I stay with my maf kit, what would I use for a stock size maf? Thanks in advance!!!

I found a rubber fitting from lowes. It fit so tight I had to soak it in hot water to get it on my 90 TB

not to be stupid or anything but your airflow is limited to its largest restriction. so if the TB is 90mm and the maf is 85mm your still only getting 85mm of airflow. people with the 90mm need to take advantage of the hptuners and go speed density. then you will realize the full potential of the fast 90mm tb.

I agree, I was already running a 85mm maf so I stuck with it, I do have to read up on speed density to understand the pro's and con's if any and get rid of the maf completly to take advantage of the full 90mm but then some has to make a 90mm lid too.
