questiong regarding piping an intercooler

Post by yazmo »

hello i am wondering if i can use silicoon hose frmo vibranperformance as a piping to the intercooler or its have to be stainless or alluminium titanium ect...

and is the piping it's better 2.5"? for an intercooler with 2 inch for the exit im planning to use t-clamp but maybe silicoon is not working for that just let me know

anyone have a shema of the exaust
any picture of the complete exaust? so i can compare.

how many 90 deg. Aluminum Elbows and 45 deg i may need do i may neeed also 180 deg?

im thinking of a front mount intercooler awic was what i want to start with but seem to complicated for my expertise.



thx in advance

You mean front mount air to air intercooler not an AWIC?

Depends on your routing what you will need.
You can go the standard route, or go the Aussie way under the headlights.

I would check out NASIOC for the write-ups since there are so many.

But the more hard piping you use, the less chance you have of there being a leak or blow-off of the silicone.

There are a lot of kits pre-made for our cars to almost fit 80% .
Yes I have too many Subarus
No you can't have one
