£15!
Make one yourself. That same foil tubing is available at good car spare parts retailers. OK, so you get some plasticky ends but what's wrong with duct tape! I did it years ago to duct an alpha to the rear exhaust of a case and it worked very well.

Yeah i would love too, This foil tubing, is it the same thing used for car engines?. No particular reason for asking, but just curious. The plastic ends
you mentioned. Did you tape them to the exhaust fan directly, or marry them to a mount of some sort
The tube will go from the Hsf upwards to my top case fan. This is mounted to exhaust from my case, but would it be best to leave this in or take it out. I don't have a fan controller, so i am wondering if this would have a adverse effect on the Hsf. My theory, is that the fan will be drawing air, at a faster rate than the Hsf, is exhausting? (i know under load, it's fan speed will increase). Would this not somehow, cause the fan to spin with a constant increase to the speed?. Just a theory though!

The foil tubing I bought was around 80mm. There's a whole load of images here.
The big white tubing was the stuff used for extractor fans and can be bought from any DIY store.

The pictures are are great help. Seeing the white tubing has given me an idea. This is going to be fun!
