Replacement intake pipes - S3
Discussion
Folks,
Given some of the problems I've been chasing this year, many of which seem related to intake leaks, I have decided I want (rather than need) to change my intake pipes between AFMs and throttle body on my non-cat S3. I currently have black spiral wire reinforced ducting which due to the uneven way it terminates makes me paranoid I'm not getting a good seal. Yes, I could (and have) used self-amalg tape but it feel like a bit of a bodge.
Does anyone have any recommendations for better intake pipe? I found the one linked below which looks like it is perfectly designed to match with the AFMs/TB and take a hose clamp; has anyone tried these to know if they are for the AFM or Cat 2.9?

Well it might have taken them over a week, but TVR Car Parts have also given me a completely unexplained paypal refund. Not much of a way to run a business, I'll certainly be trying to avoid using them if I can in future!
So back to square one again, anyone know of some good replacement intake pipes for a non-cat S3? I quite fancy getting rid of the coil reinforced pipes that are on there at the moment.
