[T3] Heat tubes

[Daniel K. Du Vall]

Not to hijack the subject but what good alternatives are there to replace the hose from the fan housing to the heater boxes without the additional components that are on a stock exhaust? The foil hose is a waste it does not last very long before it rips or gets cracks in it.

You can also get flexible heat tubing from McMaster car. They also have some very nice stainless steel house clamps. I have some out in the car.

After cutting, you could have a spot weeks out in to alleviate the unfolding. I will snap a picture today so you can see what I am talking about.
