Tiger air intake pipes

Post by afv »

Howdoo,
wanted to replace those badly cut pipes on the hl tiger and came up with this,
ordinary piece of tv coax, push the centre out with a screwdriver,
cut the outer casing to length, fits perfectly,
the braided wire can be used to make cables

regards

I hate air intake pipes. Among the reasons I went for an initial production Tiger.

I couldn't agree more. It's why I searched for a specific historical Tiger without them.
