What intake tube will fit Supra TT MAF?

There are a lot of auto salvage yards here in Houston, so I'm sure I can find the intake tube off of any car or truck. Which one would be a direct fit or can easily be modified to fit a 2000 4runner and the Supra Twin Turbo MAF?
Thanks for all your help

I was under the impression that a non-turbo Supra MAF was needed, the TT MAF being too far from stock to work well or right without much expensive modification to the ECU among other things. How do you plan on working around that? Sorry to not answer your question...

yeah, you're right. Good thing you told me because I already told a guy on the Supra Forum that I will buy his and it was from a turbo.
But no one knows which intake tube would be a good fit?
thanks anyways

I did a custom tube setup that seems to be working really well using 3" pvc and some of those rubber couplers you can get fom lowes or home depot.

Thanks for the reply Chris. I figured it would be easier to just buy some intake that will fit. It wouldn't cost that much for me (practically free since I know a couple guys from different salvage yards) and it would look more factory.

Those are called "Fernco" fittings IIRC. You can get them as just rubber coupler with hose clamps, or they make a model that has a steel jacket around it with the clamps.

uhhhh......

couple of things, first off, the TT maf is the one you want if you have a supercharger and you want more top end... NOT a non-turbo. second of all, the intake pipe from an 85 GMC jimmy with the 4.3l motor will fit on the supra maf and can be attached to the intake manifold with only a clamp. It even has the correct angle to make the turn from the airbox to the throttle body.

Tim,

Are you running the TT MAF? I thought everyone was running the NA Supra MAF?

im running the TT maf, the N/A maf is not used for our application since the idea is to get MORE air into the supercharger, not less--- the n/a maf is smaller than the turbo and correspondingly has a different response map--- ( less voltage swing = less air = less power )

I had to go back and check what I had bought, and I'm running the same TT MAF too. Duh!
