Any hardware store, in the plumbing section.
This thread's been an interesting read. I'd drop some serious coin into a one-piece CAI. Eaasier to mount, less couplers to bend/disconnect.
As I previously said, I would drop some serious coin into a single-piece CAI design. 
Are you sure the plumbing couplers have a high enough heat resistance? Sure wouldn't want one burning up and getting sucked into the engine. 
And single piece? Sign me up.

Well, they aren't plastic PCV or anything you'd make a hockey net out of.  Just the usual rubber ones, a little bit thicker, a bit nicer looking, more sturdy. I think the one I used on my MAF to CAI was ten bucks, and another smaller one was 6-something iirc. Pics:
Worth it imo, because the ones they come with are Uber squishy.

And you havn't had any trouble from 'em? Glad to hear, blue couplings on a red pipe? Not on my car!
