hi folks,
i wantto locate some ducting to feed air from the AFM to the throttle in the 5ME and and also from K&N pod air filter to turbo in the RA40.
it has to relatively stiff and robust (e.g. wont collapse under vacuum) yet flexible to curve around various engine bits and under-bonnet bumps.
Can someone advise what product name to look/search/ask for and (if you know) where in Brisbane i might find/buy this stuff?
I've seen pics of various flexible (concertina) hoses acting as brake vents, CAI, AFM->TB ducts etc but never with product/supplier names.
i'll post some tech details, prices and pics when i source some.
tia, charles.

I bought some of that flexible hose stuff for my 6M-GE to go between the AFM and TB. It was uber-tough gear with steel wire wound around it. I bought it from a big truck parts supplier somewhere on the Ipswich motorway, can't recall the name at the moment... but yeah, try a truck parts place, they'll have what you want.
