non ic intake horn

I was just reading another posting, and thought it deserved its own. Did Cummins offer a larger version or similar? and if so, what is needed to mate to the turbo?

Has anyone made one? What route did you take?

My father-in-law said he can bend 2.5" exhaust tubing the same as my intake horn, then I could use 1/2" or so for a flange with a new gasket?

Any ideas?

I've seen 4bt's with a tubular crossover, but I'm not sure of the dimensions. My HTT satge III will be here in a couple days. The new compressor outlet is 2.5'', while the crossover is 2''. My temporary fix is a silicone reducer from www.stylinmotors.com (site sponser ), but I've got a 3'' intake horn that I bought from Bill to use in the future. The plan is to flip the intake plate so the horn will be directly across from the turbo, then get a 2.5''-3'' adapter and weld some 3'' pipe that will mate up with the 3'' intake horn. While I'm at it, I'm gonna weld some bungs for water meth and that'll have to do me untill I can con Jeff out of that derned intercooler

I built it... I used exhaust tubing a few pieces of mandral bent and a 3" 90* cut and tacked to get good flow then a used a piece of 3/4" flat bar with a 3" hole drilled in it and 4 smaller holes for the bolts .welded togetherand cleaned inside and out,painted thats it.I had a muffler shop crush a piece of 3" down to 2.5 so i would have a smooth flow up to the 3"...crush down so the pipe would not get paper thin ,easyer to weld

EDIT... theres more pics. in my photos. of it
