My stock rubber intake hose between the throttle body and BOV is cracked. I want to keep it stock diameter for now. Where/how can I make another? Radiator hose maybe? I have no welding skills yet. Worried about getting a used one. I don't want someone elses problem.

Thanks

Edit: Meant to put this in the bolt on forum...either way I am just fine with it.
 
You can always just buy an aftermarket hard pipe, or have someone make one for you. You could use a radiator hose if you could find a section that would work.

Was considering it, but it looks like 1g hard pipes for the stock intercooler are hard to find...example:

ECLIPSE & TALON - Intercooler Kits & Intercooler Pipes - Punishment Racing

Seems like 2g stuff is the norm and the 1g stuff is the exception. Could have sworn I saw a thing or 2 on ebay, but ebay is blocked at work.
 
I remade my own upper ic piping with a piece of exhaust tubing and a radiator hose. Just go to napa and take your hose in and say you'd like a radiator hose that size, or piece a few together that would work. It wont be ideal, but until you can get on ebay or elsewhere to purchase a hardpipe kit it's your best bet. You should have a significantly easier time finding the hose since you have a 1g, it's a lot smaller.
