Does anyone know offhand what the dimensions of the bellows tube are? That is the accordian-looking pipe between the intake and TB, right? The seller of my eBay CAI keeps dicking me around and I never got the straight piece of tube that's supposed to replace the bellows tube. So I've decided just to get a piece of exhaust tubing or something to make my own. It's been about 3 months and I'm tired of dealing with people who can barely speak English.

Excellent. Thanks for the help. I even think I have some 2.5" tubing left from the exhaust I put on my T-bird.
