I need to move the airfilter so it dog legs out toward the front of the car as opposed to be sat on a red hot turbo.
I need some pipe that has the same diameter as the orginal telephone hose and maybe some hard pipe to?

Can anyone suggest where to purchase something like this or is anyone selling any bits that would do????

Some pictures of the War Horse so you get the idea.

Thanks!

cut the telephone pipe in half so its a 90 deg angle and stick your filter on it. or turn the bits oposite like an S shape the filter will face the front grill. or go on ebay and type in 57mm and what colour silicone hose theres loads cheap:)

I was thinking about hacking the telephone hose but it really wants to be out toward the grill so maybe buy some straight bits.
I'll get some 57mm accessories then. Thanks :agree:
