		Need to buy a new cone for my car, can someone tell me what I need to get the cone to clear the top radiator hose?
ive read that the cone needs to be 76mm inner diameter, but any idea on what type of pipe would be best? like a straight pipe or 90 degree bend down or?
thanks

		Ideally you could do with one if you are sticking with the beginning of the OEM pipework with the icv feed thing in, though if you are sticking a breather hose on that, you can just go throttle body->silicone->cone

		You want the longest straightest pipe you can manage. Ideally you could f*ck the ABS off and have the filter behind the NS headlight
