Here is a slight variation that will save you $17 on installation.

I used 2.5 inch neoprene brake duct hose from Porterfield brake company. Rather than attaching a set of flanges to the air pass through I just jammed the hose directly into the airbox. With a little flexing of the hose it fits in perfectly.

The last picture is one taken with my cell phone directly into the airbox.

Oh, yeah. I also routed the hoses around the outside of the crash bar. This required removing the air deflectors.

Great finding! I'm going to try it with just two flanges.
