    Airflow straightener material

    I'm fabricating a new air intake for an RS4 maf with some 90mm silicone hoses. As there is a 180 degree bend within 6 inches of the maf inlet I'd like to employ something to straighten the airflow into the Maf. Some fine honeycombe ally or plasic would do the trick but I've not had much luck finding anything in small quantities or cheap. Has anyone used anything they could recommend that's fine enough not to impede flow but strong enough to withstand the volume of air entering the inlet tract?

    My turbo is capable of 480 ish, but I'm probably looking at about 450 with my setup. I don't want the straightener material collapsing and causing issues.
