it was $50.00 but worth it to me. it is a perfect fit and it is VERY heavy gauge steel. the turbo sings loud now.

Thanks for explaining "why" go with a 5.5" inner tube. BTW, got the tubing yesterday morning spent all of maybe an hour with never dull and my drimmel tool buffing it to a lusterous shine. Looks great, and saved me some coins in the process.
