Rich,
Thanks for the heads up on this. I haven't have any problems with it, but if the potential exists for problems, I need to get it out of there. A friend of mine showed me some stuff that he was using, that the NASCAR folks are using. It didn't look much like any of the aircraft stuff.
I'll have to check into that some more. He wasn't using it for intake, but rather on pressure ducts for cooling.
Maybe the fiberglass duct with a couple of silicone couplers is the best solution. My daughter has a couple of them that she is ready to pitch. Since they are a couple of years old, they would be easier to get out after the glass cures, as they should break up much easier than new ones.

Hi Rich,
Scat tubing does not have inner wall and you can see the wire coil on
the inside. Sceet tubing has an inner wall that is known to separate
and collapse.
