    Im buying some silicone hoses for my induction kit

    ive been and measured the diameters i need for my mk1 vtr

    but am struggling to put all the numbers together to work out which parts to order and which sizes

    i was looking at a 90 degree bend from the throttle body (60mm)

    then into a T shaped tube so i can connect the vent filter

    then connecting my crappy pipercross filter onto the head of that which has an ID of 70mm

    anyone got any tips on what sizes to buy because if i buy all the same size none of them will fit into each other and there needs to be a reducer in there somewhere to get it from the 60mm on the TB to the 70 of the filter

    Cheers for any help

    Just buy a reducing elbow...60-70mm.

    Then fit a breather filter or catch tank instead of linking that back into the air intake.
