I have just purchased from act the silicon pipes to run down the tunnel(straights). I brought the set they offer minus the bends etc as i have these already. opened the box to see that they are a much smaller diameter???? they are about a 15mm ID whereas the bend that i need to connect to on the car at each end must be about 32mm ID??????(i take it these lengths of straight are to replace the ali tubing that runs down the tunnel).
Is this right? im a bit miffed, i assumed they would be the same so already bought some short bits of metal pipe to make the connections.
Cheers
Steve

You have bought the pipes that replace the rad return and heater in the tunnel, it doesn't replace the main 32mm alloy pipes !
