My hella rice intake that I did two days ago. It's like air ducting that they sell at the rice section of autozone, 3" diameter with 2 hose couplers included. That's the only thing that I could use for my intake, for now.

That looks so nice, I need to wire tuck but I have so much **** to tuck its not even funny.

I was thinking I could swing some 2" flex pvc to get the bend there... a little connector from the turbo to get the size.
