Hey guys, just a quick question before I buy something thats not right. I have the EL Air Intake pipe to go from my EF Throttle Body to my EF Air box. The last piece of the EL pipe is too small so I am going to replace it with a 3" stainless steel pipe.
Now I need to know how long the pipe must be? Reason I'm asking here is because my car is not with me for a few days as it's gone interstate 
Would 25cm be enough?

dude we are telling you. it is not a straight bit of pipe from the airbox to the flex bend. there is a slight bend right out of the air box and then straigh to the flex bend. shown here. not the length you need for the el pipe but it shows the bend you need. |

Ah I see what you mean. I have some more of the felxi pipe joiner so it should be ok. If not, then I'll get something done about the bend.
What is the length of pipe I need...from a glance it looks say 25cm or so?

Falcon-enthusiast,
what are you referring to? the EL Intake pipe can be bought from FTG...the stainless pipe from any exhaust shop

25 to 27cm is what you will need you do not need the bend all you need to do is adjust the flexi bend around it fits good! did the same thing to mine and looks good don't need a bend at all!

green machine that you very much for that. I had seen someone on this forum do the same...he just replaced the last pipe with a 3" stainless.
anyway I got the pipe, just waiting 4 my car back so I can fit it and let you all know how it goes.
