ACT Plenum Elbow Alternative?

Just noticed this on eBay, is that the same thing for 1/4 of the price?
I'm guessing it'll be around a 70mm ID?

Might be a bit short on length either side right enough.

The ACT one i have on my car was different sizes on each end. Maybe not different enough to make it impossible to fit??

Yep my Powers elbow has different inside diameters!
It's the business and will last for years.
If you have to stretch one end to fit it will fail sooner rather than later.

The ACT rubber elbow is better with heat .

I thought Silicone was far superior to rubber in most/every way?

More stable, less likely to perish/crack/deteriorate, ability to withstand high temperatures (>500 Degrees C?).
It's also more resistant to other chemicals etc than rubber I think?

Not sure (other than cost) why you would go for rubber over silicon for hosing etc?

Shame about the sizes though - guess ACT is the way to go.
