Title: Home made Snorkel, what flexi pipe ?
Post by: thompjas on May 21, 2008, 20:51:28: I want to add a snorkel to my 90 NAD, got a decent length of 63mm aluminium pipe, now need to get some flexible tubing to run from the pipe to my air intake. Anyone know where I can get this from ?? what have you used ??

Don't want to pay for a complete kit
