either you dont have a 70mm tb or your tube is some freak peice. im running a 75mm tb and still use the stock ruber tube.......sounds almost as if you have a 90mm unit.....?

hm....ive also seen people run the mac cai with larger tbs(75mm) so i would just give it another try, get a small flat blade screw driver and work the silicone tube over the tb.........it'll be tight the first time but then it should form to the new tb after a few heat cycles...good luck

just go to your local hardware store and get a pipe reducer... Something like a 3 1/2" to 3"....I dont know the size off hand, and its not gonna be as pretty as the one you have but it will get the job done.
