Ive got BOOST but NO inlet tubing

My tuner did a dyno run today without the inlet tubing in place and he got 8 to 10lbs boost at about 3000rpm before he shut it down.
So now Ive found the problem but I dont have an intake tube.
Does anyone make this for the Corvette or anyone have any ideas how they fabbed one??
Thanks
John

sounds like you had the stock piece and it was collopasing! you will need to probabyl get a custom one made.. I assume the shop that did the install could handle that np.

They should eventually
But if I can come up with something before they do it would be faster
Ive been without the car for long enough.

All you need is some mandrel bent pipe in the correct diameter, a sawzall and a welder! Nothing to it!

Just use your stock inlet pipe as a pattern, and get to work!
