WATCH OUT!!!!

I was told before i put it on to measure...measure...and then measure again before you cut and i still managed to cut it too short!!

The error i made is that although i measured the length (oooohhh errr!!) i didnt allow for the angle!

Enjoy smile

Oh dear...Get yourself a 90 degree stainless steel elbow and utilise the silicon hose as joiners..You will need more clips...If you can't use any of the straight silicone then i might have some you can have...If you can let me know the ID..Saves me taking mine off...smile

Or do it how i had my 280i air intake pipe...That way you just need some straight sections of steel as joiners and use the silicone elbow...Ziga
