Just wondering if a 3 INCH rubber elbow will fit onto the 2.4l throttle body. i am pretty sure it will, JUST double checking.
thanks.

you could just go out there and measure across the throttle body. that would work unless you dont own one. how many mm. is it like....54, 56 or 52 mm . something like that.
i'll go ahead and do it. 60mm TB x .03937(is what 1mm is in referance to inches) =2.362somthing. i forget how wide the top of the tb is cause it flares out from the plate. but that gives you an idea. mabye find a rubber reducer (that sounds bout perverted) clamp the $hit out of it to the top of the TB. don''t know, i havn't gotten around to trying to make one yet cause it's cold and i just dont wanna go outside.
our tb's are 2 3/4" so youll need 1 that reduces
ive got a 2 3/4" to 3" reducer on my tb , and im using all 3" tubing for my intake
which i got off ebay as a 3" intercooler tubing kit
I fit a 2.5" coupler onto my throttle body, its was a bitch but it fits.

^^^ why didt you get a 2 3/4' 1 ??
when i get back on later on my comp , ill post a link to the company i got mine from
id like to see some pics of these. i would like to make one myself. did you just use a k/n filter>? these r going to start sounding like newb questions, but are you happy with it>?notice any gains/ u used all 3in piping correct
cool thanks.
i think i might just cut a little bit of my AEM elbow and put that over the t/b then the 3inch elbow over that and clamp it down. that should work. hah
when i did a boost leak test i had a 3inch coupler on the t/b and it worked.

I got a chance to check out my cav and the 3inch elbow wouldnt work. it was too big. so i am going to send it back, i have another idea i am going with.
But dealing with www.intakehoses.com was great, got the stuff with in a week. I recommend getting custom intake parts from him. Great prices.
A NORMAL 90 degree elbow will not work it cant clear the hood...when i built mine i got a specail part from a company called airflowonline.com i think..i tried looking up the site but i cant find it, sorry ill keep looking for you though...
huh? im using a 3" coupler will no problems at all....i guess i must be special or something...
