Smooth Bellows cheap? Where to find?
I remember seeing some one post up a place to get some knock off smooth bellows cheap I think they were like $10 for the one that looks like the SLP one except it just looked like rubber instead of having a shiney out side? I can't find the post I was wondering if any one knew what thier web address was ETC...? Any help would be appreciated>

just buy a fernco 3" to 3" pipe ate home depot for like 5 dollars. Microwave it for like a little over a minute but not too long or it will melt. Just long enough to soften it up. Put it on with a little pressure and it will go on pretty easily. I did this and I haven't had any problems with it like some people have said. It works out ver well.

Fernco toilet bowl hose is the cheap way to go and if you want a cheap shifter too you can get a toilet plunger to match. Just kidding :p

Inspector I think this is the one I posted a while back AirFlow Sys.
And the only reason that I can think of people getting
3"- 4" is cause they have a 85mm maf like I do. Thats the size I got but the only problem I have is I dont know how much to cut. Anyone know the how much to cut?

If you get the AFS get the 3.5" x 3.5" for the best fit. I ordered the 3.5" x 4" and it was loose on the TB, but it worked after being clamped down. I had to trim mine quite a bit.

May have to look around but you can find a nice 3 x 3 silicon hose.
I had a Frenco and hated the toilet hose look but each to their own.

Re: Smooth Bellows cheap? Where to find?
Thanks that was what I was looking for Air flow systems. I appreciate everyone's input but just so everyone knows I also have the fernco on my car and do not have a problem with the function I just want it to look better and not like a pluming fixture no offence to each their own and it does work well no problems I just wanted it to look a little better. Thanks again everyone!

Had the Airflow system piece. It's nearly as stiff as the fernco. We put it on a friends car.. now he can't keep the lid on it. Torque of the motor is is pulling the lid out of it's base.
I suggest going with Baker hose or the more expensive SLP. Or is a $14 part worth tearing up a $150 one?
FWW: Many fast cars out there still running the stocker Mine included

Yeah, I tried the smooth bellows from Airflo Sys, and it would NOT fit right. I cut it nice, etc... Maybe with a WS6s raised air box, the angel is worse, because it was a really crappy fit. I am running the stocker now...
