I'd not recommend that attaching method. The dryer vents experience little
more than 1 or maybe 2 psi of pressure differential. The turbo boost can go
up to 20 psi. Duct (or as originally, unofficially, designated by the US
Army, duck tape) won't hold up to this amount of pressure and the piping will
blow off in short order.
