What are my options? After 10 years my flexible tube has finally failed. I have a stock sized turbo inlet bell, and am running a stock maf sensor. I would prefer a bent pipe, and not a straight pipe with angled couplings, but I would be ok with that also.
-
I have the later but have eyed the s shaped ones on eBay. I also run a stock maf.

How about one that's half way there?...

The reason I went with the one bend and the angled coupler was to be able to 'steer' the pipe and MAF at whatever angle you want while still clearing the IAC plug and the uppipe. It's not as important on the 3" as the 3.5" but it really helps those people that run 3" up pipes too.

Did you buy this or make yourself?

That's one of mine. I also have it in 3.5" but you'd need an LS1 MAF since it won't work with a stock MAF.
The pipe shown is for a LT1 or stock MAF. Multi-ply silicone boost hoses (overkill), alum pipe, and stainless steel T-bolt clamps. (and the ability to keep it off the up pipe and IAC plug)
