Default What should I use for my intake tube?

I now have an Airaid filter/dam, but no intake tube to go to the TB. Right now I'm using aluminum dryer flex tubing, but I want something plastic so it doesn't conduct heat as much. Should I use PVC? Where do I get the rubber elbows for the bends?

Airaid makes a tube, it is called an "MIT" (modular intake tube). The part number is 200-912.

I checked that out but it looks like it's designed for the stock intake manifold....wont work for me since I have a Radix. Thanks for the info though.
