the only problem with that is that the maf is plastic... i thought about someone doing a custom tube but stillthe issue remains that i need some way to coupling it to the maf...DUCT TAPE...

unfortunetly no but if it was i would def have someone fab something up... i have literitaly searched for hours and even spent hrs driving around here in town to hydraulic shops and hose shops to see if anyone had one but the either deal with piping thats way to big or way to small... i am wondering if there is a way to stretch and mould a intercooler coupling ... like get about a 3 or 4 inch coupling and heat it to stretch it over the maf but then i still need to figure out how to get a 2.5 inlet on the other end...
