What Size Pipes

[KirkJames]

Just wondering what size pipes etc I need to run a cold air feed from inner wing to throttle body for a 180. Oh and does anyone know where I can get a cheap breather from for the idle control valve thingymajiggy??

Cheers

I used 2 90deg aluminium bends and some 76mm silicone.
I actually have 600mm of silicone tubing left as I only used 400mm and bought a meter. Also I have a breather but it wont bolt straight on believe its 25mm diameter but will check if wanted. I think I may have some of the flexi Neoprene tubing thats also 76mm that I decided not to use.

76mm bends


76mm silicone


My setup

Tb is about 71mm. 70mm (2" 3/4) is a standard size but 76mm (3") is cheaper and more common.

So my idea for a cheap induction kit is

a 76/70 reducer. ?6


then a stainless bend, not alloy so I can Tig weld a "T" in for the idle ?12


Options then are more pipe work to the inner wing with a quality open cone filter or a budget induction kit. ?45


Did you see the post on the guys that had the ITG style hose made by PSH ?

I was going to give them a ring today, they may be more interested if they are making up a batch instead of one

There was a group buy for the silicon pipe from PSH but it didn't show much interest and in the end there were just 2 orders including one from me. The pipe itself is ?50 and PSH should have all the dimensions to make another one. I have not fitted it so don't know how well fit it is. Heard from the other guy who bought one that slight trimming is needed that was all.

I can always take a photo of the silicon pipe and posted up if people want to see it. It basically looks like the ITG pipe.

Believe Car13 can get hold of the itg hoses. As hes a ITG dealer or linked to them through the vucan racing

Just a cheap one for now will do but all ideas worth mulling over, like I said after christmas I will prob go for the ITG/K&N Apollo kind of thing .

Thanks for the help guys
