I am not too good at this teaching stuff, but here is what I did to join the Tekata Intake to a Forge turbo inlet adapter.
I first ordered this intake tube. It's 3" Id and is a BEAR to get on the turbo inlet, even when lubed. Very easy to slide on the intake tube. Very nice quality tube for an incredible price.
The legs on it are 6" in each direction. I put a 3" steel band around the pieces I need to cut off. It was the easiest way to make a nice straight cut with a sharp razor. The side towards the turbo I cut off about 1.25" and the end towards the Tekata intake tube I cut about .5" off. I used blue locktite on all the screws they provided too. Everything fits nice and snug and doesn't rub on anything. It's much better attached than with the old turbo pipe and the crappy adapter they give you. I also provided the instructions to put it on. Sorry for the PDF format, wanted a video instead. Hew are a few photos:
Best regards
