    Hey all,

    I'm trying to do my own custom intake setup on the RS where i use the stock airbox and have a short ram running off it. Well i'm having real trouble finding anywhere in the sandy springs/buckhead/atlanta area where i can get some ABS black plastic piping. I need a bend and about 13inches of piping. I've tried every Home Depot and Lowes in the area and i have no luck. I've even searched online but had no luck.

    It sucks because i am as sure as hell not having a bright white chlorine emitting intake tube. Besides ABS has great properties and will match up stock like....

    Well if any of you know of anywhere where i might be able to buy some it would be greatly appreciated.


    Thanks alot,


    Jack

    Well this is becoming increasingly difficult. Have any of you got any other reccomendations for a good black plastic that will be living in the engine bay?

    Yeah, i'll make sure to check the heating ratings. How hot can our engine bays actually get?
