air intake boot alternative

[hoevesruperd]

is there an alternative to the air intake boot that connects the TB with the air mass meter? i've seen on turbo setups that there are solid plastic connectors.

i'm going to build a custom airbox and would like to replace the boot with something a little longer and more durable and still keep the vacuum links

thanks

yeah thats what i'm looking for but its so pricey!! i'm going to think about it and maybe find a way to craft it myself

is this part tuned for proper air intake? like plenums and runners? or is it unimportant, as long as its large enough?

if you are making your own then just make it large enough and smooth.
