Default Wanted: intake coupling

Back when i just got my AEM CAI i chopped off part of my intake to fit it on my REV'a Tib. After that, it didnt work either so i found another method on hp.com ( removing the canister). Since then i've been using a 3inch coupling cut and folded over and clamped on. Which is hella bad but i never got a chance to find a real coupling, so i am looking for one now. Either you have an extra one and want to help me out or know where i can get one. please tell me. Thank you

BTW does anyone know what size is the AEM pipeing?

Try some wreckers in your area. It should be cheap. If you need one reeeaaally badly I've got my old one I've just removed but I'm sure it's different to the US spec one... the rubber is longer to make up for the fact there is no MAF sensor, so you'd have to cut it down a lil'.

& I'm pretty sure the AEM piping is 3".

EDIT*: Sorry mate, I've just re-read your post... Are you after the elbow coupler or just a 3" to 2.5" reducer?

Are you talking about the elbow? It should go like this if I remember correctly, MAF, elbow, then pipe and then throttle body. You cant cut the MAF so Im guess you're talking about the elbow...well if so I have one.

You should be able to pick one up in an auto accessories store or something.

Why don't you just measure your pipe your self with a tape measure???
I don't have an AEM, but I'm guessing it's like 2.5"
