Snorkel piping help

Dannyboy444 · Mar 29, 2014

After some help, I've bought a snorkel and all the inner wing ductings as mine was originally a 2.5d with no wing ducts! But my problem is my air box is 75mm and the snorkel is 65mm!
Can anyone tell me the best way to get around this an what's the best hose to use etc?
Cheers Dan

It's ok that stuff but is very easily pierced so needs keeping away from any sharp edges.....or any edges at all.

Stick with a rigid design, it offers support and clamping made easy with out the pipe crumpling, you can also put a very thin film of RTV on install to avoid any leakage..

Ye it's the rigid pipe I'm wanting to use if possible just can't find any lol, and I've got a tube of RTV at the ready.
