Suggestions for 90 degree elbow pipe
 
Hey all,

So got a slight issue, need to get a 90 degree elbow joint to stick the air filter on the turbo. Needs to be 4.5 inch diameter, which isn't a problem to find already got picked up the K&N Filter today.

But since it won't fit, need to get the elbow joint to point it toward the battery. Any suggestions on what to use as material?

I've heard pvc pipes would work fine, but others have told me the housing still gets super hot, and pvc won't cut it. I suppose aluminium would be the best, anyone know a good place in Calgary, AB to get this kinda stuff?

You need a pipe that has a 4.5" OD ..... good lord how big is that filter?

Heh its not so bad.

About 10 inches long, and then 5 inch diameter, cylinder shaped is the only way I could go.

:cool:
