What do you call it? The "tube thingy so I can fix my damn TII"?
I can go measure it when I get home, its no problem..I just wondered if anyone had the dimensions handy. I am at work, and I could swing by Home Depot on the way home.

Its a pipe (pvc or something) that runs from your turbo outlet to the TB so you can run the car while playing with the mechanisms underneath.

Welllllll.....I was going to measure the pvc I use and tell you the outside diameter is 1 7/8'' and how I had to taper the end of the pvc to make it fit into the hose from the turbo but not the end that goes to the throttle. But seeing the disrespect you just showed, I ain't a gonna. I'm also not going to tell you about the 90 degree elbow that has 1 1/2 inch embossed on it. I don't understand plumbing. It says the elbow is 1/1/2 '', but the internal diameter is 1 7/8". Anyway you would have needed a piece that is 1 7/8 inches outside diameter and at least two feet long. You cut to fit the two 90 degree elbows that have 1 7/8" inside diameter(who da thought).
The 1 78 fits just right into the throttle intake hose but not the intercooler inlet tube. Like I said, I had to taper the end of that one a touch with a grinder.
So I ain't gonna tell you squat. You need to be re-cycled back to the Korean DMZ

Wait a minute. I was sitting here with this outfit in my hand wondering why two 1 1/2 elbows?????? Should only need one I says. NO. One of the 1 1/2 elbows fits inside the hose on the throttle inlet. Fits snug. Gotta have it. So its 1 7/8 outside diameter pvc and two elbows that say 1 1/2 on the side of them, but are really 1 7/8 inside diameter. Damn plumbing numbers all screwed up.

Ok. I can accept that. The pipe is indeed 1 1/2 inside dia and the elbows inside dia is 1 7/8 ths even though it says 1 1/2 on the side of it, but I see there is a reduction down in the elbow that is indeed 1 1/2 inches.
So its two feet of 1 1/2 pvc plus two 90 degree elbows that are 1 1/2.
Yeah.
