Lid/MAF coupler & MAF/Throttle Body coupler The car in question right now has what I believe is a TSP 85mm Lid (I think this because there is no silicon hose between the lid and MAF), stock MAF, and stock LS1 throttle body. The car is now changing to an MTI transparent lid, keeping the stock MAF, and going to an 85mm throttle body. What are the two coupling hoses that I need, and where can they be purchased? Thanks for the help, and please let me know if I'm overlooking something here.

I would like to know as well. I also have the MTI clear lid on the car, and a 85mm TB coming soon. But instead of a stock MAF I just bought a SLP version. I was thinking about getting Fernco or www.hightempsilicone.com couplers, if they will work. Don't know if they will though.

Any ideas here guys on what will fit an 85mm throttle body to a stock MAF? What about that "hitempsilicone" website? What size hose would I need from there?

Somebody has...
So you got your PP 85mm TB eh? I've been waiting since September for mine. Byunspeed said by the end of October to early November. I'll measure it when I get it and buy the closest thing I can find at www.hightempsilicone.com.

Hell no I don't have it... just want to be prepared.
And I was told by Professional Products in mid October that it was still 60-90 days out.

The TB shouldn't have a different outer diameter than a stock one, which is ~4". All the 90 mm TB have the same outer diameter as the stock ones, the inside diameter is just larger. This means you should just need a 4" to 3" reducer piece to fit from the throttle body to maf. It shouldn't be any different than what is on the car now.
