looking for new inlet tube

I am wanting to get a new inlet to my throttle body coming form the intercooler before the weather starts turning nice.

The 90degree metal tube between the throttle body couple and the intercooler hose just is not long enough or the wrong angle to really seat into the couple hoses.

Would like something that would give more depth going into the throttle body and maybe replace a couple more inches of the silicone intercooler hose.

Is there any off the shelf solution?

Don't know about intakes, but I do know your coolant level is low.

So I bought the race MAF tube from Bob @ brute speed. However I’m sure you could get a stainless 90 to put in there. What part of Mi? You might be able to find a local shop to fab something.

That air filter is super crushed in that second picture, lol. I dont like the MAF placement on the stock procharger tube, so i might do something like that too.

Got the 3.5" maf tube from Bob.

Now I need to decide how to mate it to the 3" silicone hose. Think I might try heating up a section on scrap hose and see if I can get it to stretch over the 3.5" piping.

Or I will need to get a reducer welded on the end of it.

I welded a piece of aluminum on mine and inserted into the PC silicone. Then bought a vibrant silicone coupler from TB to MAF tube
