Default 90 degree hose for airbox to turbo on 94 classic

The crappy PVC turbo inlet hose on the other halfs classic is past its sell by date, its began cracking at the turbo side and the recirc pipe is no more (had to perform surgery).. I've been looking for a replacement silicone hose but its prooving difficult as each end is a different size (approx 55.50 -> 66.50).. The closest sizes I've found are 51.00 -> 63.00 (slightly too small) and 63.00 > 70.00 (slightly too large) As polyester reinforced silicone isn't very "stretchy" these are more than likely a no-go..

Has anyone ever manged to source a silicone replacement for this crappy piece of pipe?

Cheers

I havent looked for the same hose your after but i was after a dump valve fitting kit in RED i went to Demon Tweeks and they told me they would have to get samco to make the hoses up which is why i couldnt get it straight away.

I'm sure Samco or SFS will be able to make something up for you but were you ask I dont know.

not much help am I

No point paying through the nose to get something made up there must be a pipe available somewhere?

I have tried to find this exact pipe for my 94 wrx and ended up buying a 90 degree samco (63mm-76mm) a 45 degree samco (76mm) and making my own inlet tract. MAF removed, breather pipes VTA and ISCV covered with a bit of old air filter element.

Not as nice looking as I had hoped but does the job. Ended up with blue hoses as it was an 8 week wait for red hoses!

Does the 63mm end fit snuggly on the turbo then?
