Default DIY induction hose

I am hoping to make my own induction hose for the MY99-00.
To those that have done the job....what size and length of silicon/alumiumium would be required.
Cheers

I used 63mm Tubing under the inlet manifold. You cant really get much more than that under there unless you 'oval' the tubing, or grind away the fuel rail holders etc..

I then used a 90 degree 76mm-->63mm reducer hose from Samco, and cut a little off the 63mm end. This was then used to join Turbo to Inlet pipe (Alloy).
The other piece of the hose went on the other end, to take the Hose round the Inlet Manifold.

Pics of pipe.


*Note* this was before I used the 76--63 reducer. Pipe was 63mm all the way then.

I have also re-located my Power Steering Res to free up a little room
