You want one that can FLEX, not rigid. Here'* why:

And no, I didn't have a broken motor mount, and yes, even the L27 will do this. Allow it to flex especially on a car with the plastic upper intake. You don't want to break the upper intake when the motor flexes under torque, and the filter hits the hood insulator.

Silicone. Try turbo suppliers. Turbonetics comes to mind.

The cheapest that I found was www.ajusa.com. Ended up being under $60 I believe.
update: Yup, $55.25. Plus Free Shipping.

Warning to those who buy the reducer dbeast listed on previous page:

The seller uses Bidpay, not Paypal, which charges $3 per transaction. The seller also has 92% Feedback. I bought mine tonight and will inform you when/if i get it.
