It only cost me $27 CAD (plus $100 CAD for E70 TB part) so its not too expensive of a science project. if I end up modifying the 95mm end of air tube (trimming it down to 92-93mm)... thats when it gets expensive, if I need to go back to factory designed air tube as they are a costly bit, for being a plastic tube.

I heard that! Definitely avoid that if you can and I'll cross my fingers that the silicone tube you have ordered has enough stretch to do the job.
Thinking out loud (again) if the silicone tube doesn't work out maybe you could do a thin layer of rubber "weatherstripping" around the flange of the tb and bring it up to the diameter of the stock air pipe??
Or use a couple/few large diameter o-rings to help make a seal for testing...
GOOD LUCK!!
