2.0 bottom+rs1800head+HO intake - what pipes

[opexo]

So its a 2ltr bottom end with fiesta rs1800 head, cams, HO intake etc and the question is what plumbing to use between the filter and the throttle?

a) the plastic one from 105hp 1.8 like on that pic http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y194/joeoates/engine1.jpg

b) frst metal intake pipe like that http://www.speedshack.co.uk/images/RS%20Tu...ipe%20large.JPG

c)* rubber hose like this http://ft86speedfactory.com/images/pspint430blue.JPG with correct length and angle etc

d)* metal pipe(s) with rubber joints like this http://nf.jebolist.com/AT05-03-0040/001.jpg

* - inside diameter of these matching the inside diameter of the throttle and the MAF body

 

The question rises because i don't know how much a) and b) can flow considering there is a slight work on the head for more flow so it's not restricted by any part between the filter and the valves. I'm assuming that c) and d) flow more, but i'm just not sure and if the difference is negligible or close i'd go for a) because the engine would look like stock (and the rest look ugly) and will shock people more when it shows its power

The K&N induction kit hose can be persuaded to fit most applications.

Thanks Stu. I'll look for this as N1 option, tho the most expensive i think:}

I forgot to include the plastic pipe used in mk6 escorts above.

So for the sake of information which of the mentioned would be better then the other, like in a descending order, how would you classify them /i hope you can understand what i mean:}/
