Air Ducting Material

[JoshGti 8]

I plan on running an Airbox on my 205 as I'm unhappy with the cramped arrangement that goes on by running a filter behind the headlight, as I'm running motronic I don't have an afm to worry about so I plan on running one bolted to the inside on the wheel arch/bottom corner of the bay.

 

My plan is to run ducting from the throttle body to the box and then just angle the inlet of the box to the rallye vent in the bumper. Putting my AIT in the box, running a panel filter not a cone filter as its going to be a daily I'd like to keep it a bit more civilised sounding.

 

What is the best type of ducting to use, I don't want to use this crappy eBay stuff as its just like a coil of wire with cling film wrapped round it! Is there anything more. I'd like to use something more oe, something like a flexible plastic duct?

 

Any thoughts? On the idea or the ducting? I have a spare k and n element kicking around from a corsa so I was thinking of using a corsa Airbox to save buying a new filter.

I bought this from a motorfactors a few years ago but never got round to fitting it.

It was only a few quid.

Used to sell that stuff where I used to work, it's meant for exhaust ducting iirc, all I remember is it creasing up very badly!
