Anyone know where I can get like a Samco or Agency Power or similar silicone MAF to Turbo intake pipe for the RB20DET?

There is a group buy on Skylines Australia for off brand units, but shipping is a bit much. Anyone know another place to get my hands on one?

No, I have the stocker, I am just looking for something that isn't going to collapse under hard acceleration and isnt all squished up like the stupid accordion pipe Nissan decided to use.

well then, thats simple. by up some vibrant alum piping (1 U bend would most likely do), get a silicon coupler for the turbo and one for the MAF placement, weld in some nipples for the recirc and so forth and your rock solid with no worries.

Yeah, that was my plan initially, but then I started seeing these silicone units and a local shop told me some people in the states have them.

The silicone unit seems much more appealing because it already has all the nipples and would be more forgiving than a metal pipe for fitment.
