Cool air intake duct source

Post by Keir »

My foam insulated air duct between the fender port and the hard plastic filter box pipe has disintegrated. The inner diameter of the old duct doesn't match the silver foil flex tubing available at my local parts store. Anyone have a source for this type of duct?

Empi part found

63 mm duct (not insulated) is made by EMPI and sold as "heater hose"

Home depot has nothing that resembles the original part or the EMPI heater hose.
