Hi Mate...I believe its 68mmID..If you can pull the existing one off and either measure the AFM opening or the plenum inlet to be sure...Be careful when you order an elbow as the plenum end is longer than the AFM end and i think its longer than a standard elbow..Im sure ACT can provide the correct one....Cheers...Ziga

72mm does ring a bell but measure both ends and chose the smaller.

Nice one guys... Mines taped up at the moment so bound to be the odd leak, will that have any effect on the performance?

72mm is the correct bore. To cut mine when I marked up and put it in a vice, this held it still whilst cutting with a sharp hacksaw, using the jaws of the vice as a straight edge. First time spot on.
