Not trying to be obtuse. The reason I am asking is, the stock air box, in the Jeep I recently picked up, had been replaced with a Banks intake setup. I know I can find an OEM airbox and tube to put back in, but I'm planning on doing something that is more suited to high clearance fenders, similar to some of the mods that have been done by others in the forum. I already have ABS pipe and fittings readily available, so what I'm asking is, would there be a detriment using ABS over polyethylene or polypropylene?
I am not 100% on which plastic they use other than I know what it isn't which is ABS which is the most easily glued of all the plastics a DIY would work with. Lot of folks have fabricated stuff to the factory air box and tube with any normal glue failures reported including myself which is the only way I know what it isn't.
I wouldn't use ABS purely due to the wall thickness of the pipe and the easily identifiable nature of the fittings as being for something not normally found under the hood. That is only my personal bias and no reflection on the viability of using said parts.
