forgot to mention, that stuff sets up fast, like 10 seconds, so make sure you have everything where you need it. I glued one piece to the aluminum insert first, then pre-staged the second piece about 1/4" from butted together, applied the glue, then sealed them together, held for about 15seconds, done deal. Use Acetone right away to clean any excess. OK, that's about all I can think of. Let me know how it goes!

thanks Joe, I thought we said this Saturday on the phone?
U/W this week, I'll catch up next weekend, the last few odds and ends should come in this week(fingers crossed)
Holty,
parts list:
2 rubber 4", 22degree elbows
2 rubber 4" hump hoses (7/8" cut from each end with razor blade, electric palm sanded to perfection 40grit)
2 aluminum intake tubes (2" long 4" diameter) used as back-plate to glue the hump hoses and 22deg hoses together; 1" either side)
1 4" to 3.75" reducing sleeve for a tight fit on the 90mm TB (trimmed about 1/4" off the inner sleeve so it didn't hang past the edge of the TB flange; not necessary but a nice touch)
4 4" hose clamps of your choice
1 tube of loctite super glue professional (this stuff is ridiculous, I glued two rubber hoses together as a tester, put one end in the vise and grabbed the other end with channelocks; the rubber started tearing mid tube with the joint showing no signs of separating, not in the least bit, doh!)
your measurements might be +/- a few 16th's of and inch so make sure you measure everything out but this should get you in the ballpark
