Just spent most of the day re-building the intake system so im hesitant to take it apart again!

Does anyone know the inner radius of the outlet (ie holes going to the 8 pipes)of the airbox as my drivers side are slightly crushed and i hate things not being perfect!
Been told that exhaust pipe will fit and be an improvement as i can get them tighter (why TVR didn't do stuff like this anyway is beyond me!) but need to know the size

Not off the top of my head, but I'll be taking the box off tomorrow to fit some heat-shielding, in preparation for some intake temperature tests at Knockhill on Friday.
I've even got a bit of SS pipe which looks like it might be about the right diameter, which you're welcome to if it fits.
Failing that, surely fibreglassing it up would be easy enough??

Approx 70mm or slightly less for inner dimension.

The inner radius on mine is 65mm, and the outer radius is 72mm.

The SS pipe I've got is 65mm outer radius, 57mm inner radius (yes, it really does have 4mm walls!). I've got about 2" of it, so you're welcome to somew if you want it.
