need help with a twin 57 mm throttle body

    I'm using a throttle body off an 01 Cobra on my project. I need a hose that will fit over the end of the throttle body but will reduce to 3" or 3-1/2" if at all possible.

    That would make my life SO much easier.
    I found a straight coupling that fits beautifully but I don't want to create my own reduction elbow out of a mandrel bend. That would be a MAJOR PITA.

    Any suggestions?

    BTW... the perimeter of the TB is 14 inches. That means the ID of the hose needs to be about 4-1/2 inches or 115 mm.

    Unfortunately, the hoses they list are too small. I have a 4" to 3" transition now and ther's no way it'll stretch. The difference in circumference is 1-1/2 inches. That's not gonna happen. :(
