If overall length is close it should be fine, if you are adding length use hard pipe as much as you can it should flow better then flex, and try to keep the diameter of the pipe at least as large as it is now, larger diameter helps keep the flow, when you restrict it the air will just find the path of lest resistance, unlike what some people believe.
I don't think this will be much of a change of length if at all. It might be a tiny bit longer. But I'll see what I can do about using non-flex stuff. I can probably manage that for some of it.
