Hi guys I'm fitting a airbox back into my patrol and find trying to use metal bends and all that way to hard and requires a few bends in a very very short pipe and thinking is it ok to use that platic pipe that has the metal wire wound inside it for added strength? Becuase it's not for looks i just want to hook this airbox box ASAP so i can fit my snorkle on to it If that plastic pipe with the wire inside is the way to go can someone direct me to the right place to buy it and how to secure it to the turbo without melting silcon joiner? Cheers Rick. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
