Filetr to throttle body pipe?

jamesshack

Recently put an intake air filter in place of the standard box and noticed a small crack in the corregated part of the pipe leading from the throttle body, had it checked at my local garage and they said it would'nt do any harm so i have wrpped it in duck tape until i find a replacement.

Anyone know where i could get one? I tried all my local scrap yards and auto shops but nothing doing….. I would be up for putting one together myself if anyone has done this can you let me know?

Hello James you'd be suprised how often members get this, it does cause an issues but taping it up will suffice for now, as for a replacement its a hunting job and waiting until one pops up..
if your as you say using an after market filter can i presume its a cone one then check out Jay mx3 work log at his conversion for this …

For an extra £20-30 you can get a mutts nuts induction kit for that

MX6 is different, I have checked because I found a shop in america that does replacement MX6 pipes and he also confirmed they are different

the convertion is easyer than it looks if you like i can pm you all the bits you need to do it and will give you any advise if needed
i had a split pipe when i went to jap fest ( 170miles for me) so i put this together on the stand hense the cable ties but on the jurney home it saved me over £15 of fuel so well worth doing
the total cost for pipeing was 80 bit it was for decent quality
hope this helps
