    ATTN John91coupe: Need to find custom tubing...

    I was told to ask you where to get custom tubing. I am having one heck of a time getting (or finding for that matter) a tube to fit to bend around this VERY tight 90 that I have that goes from the blower discharge tube to the meter. I have a picture and will post shortly. Bassicaly I need to get a tube that has a VERY tight radius to bridge the two together. Where can I get tubing from? Someone did give me a site... turbotubes.com I think it was... but they want 95 for one 90 plus 85 for re-tooling it to do what I need it to do (3.5" on one end and 3" on the other). If there is some other alternative, I would MUCH rather do that. $170 for one single VERY short, VERY small tube is a bit steep if you ask me. Anyway... what do I do?

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    I will list a couple of the websites that I have for tubing. Maybe one of them will help but anything custom will cost some bucks, to be sure. One of these should have what you want. I got my aluminum tubing from westcoastbending. Let me know if there is anything else I can do to help.

    Thank you very much John. I actually somehow figured out last night how to get it to work with what I have and it ended up really good... my next thing is somehow getting a custom radiator hose made to fit, because that NEEDS to be re-routed entirely... so I will check those sites out and see if they can help. Thank you again.
