Go to Home Depot, get a hose that fits and make it yourself for about 5-6 bux.

It MAY help at high speeds if you team it up with some sort of CAI and a aftermarker high flow air filter. *shrug*

I couldn't get the Fernco to fit right on mine for some reason. Mine wouldn't make the bend to fit all the way on the tb. Top fit fine, bottom was barely touching, even after microwaving it. My $5 down the drain..

Just to let you guys know.
Red and blue silicone hoses here. From the 4" TB to the 3.5" MAF with a 45* angle. Check the store to order the other colors. These just need to be trimmed and installed. Real high quality.
