Re: smooth bellows? Do a search on "Bellows" in the forum. There is a lot on same topic. Quite a few poeple made theirs from Home Depot flexible tubing for next to nothing.
I wouldn't spend what suppliers ask fo them.
I got FIPK and bellows come with it.

Re: smooth bellows?
What Inside Diameter hose are you guys using. I heard that the 3 inch would work, but it does not even come close to fitting on my car.

Nice bellow NightHawk.

ZeeQuick, the 3" to 3" fernco works, you just have to trim it a little. Check out that link just above the picture that I posted. If its trimmed properly, you don't even have to microwave it

Re: smooth bellows? At home Depot the 3" fernco coupler fits perfect...no need for ends to be different..and It costs $5-$7....and every city has a home depot or a plumbing store that has one of these....
It fits perfect...and snug...just heat the dam thing in the nicrowave for about 45 seconds and it flexes a little easier....then drive around and get the car good and hot and it will flex itself into place a little more...when it cools down...It fits perfect...some people have had o shave off the top side of the end connecting to their MAF because of the angle...but its fairly soft rubber...and is easy to cut if you have a "sharp" knife...and you can ppick it up insted of having to order it and wait for it to show up...I put mine on in the parking lot of home depot.
