WTB: Hosing thing for my ebay intake

Hi all.

I am looking for a silicone hose thing for my ebay intake. For those who know me... you know that my airflow sensor thingy is being held onto the short ram intake by a crappy, non fitting hose thing, and tape.

Not sure what size I'll need. I would measure it... but it is raining outside right now, so... I can't really measure it. I'll try to do that tomorrow morning if it isn't uber wet.



Kind of like the small thing in the lower right. If anyone has one... please let me know. I would like to get it as soon as possible.

TIA


Added: also, that metal bracket/clip thingy would be nice too.

Hmm. Yeah... I'll have to see. It is fine for the time being... but I kind of want it to be secure. Kind of put that off for long enough.

intakes are all pretty much the same, as long as there aren't any horribly tight bends in them, and as long as they aren't made of flimsy material. heat soak is always a problem, especially for short rams, but that can be fixed pretty easily. the big thing is whether or not the filter is any good.

kev, you might also try checking AutoZone, i know they sell individual intake parts so that you can build a custom kit, and i know i've seen couplers just like those (even in blue!) for sale there. i think they're about $10 or so.
