gorganl2000 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 as the title says, would there be any noticeable impact on the volume and "smoothness" of air flow between the two? this is with respect to 2.5" silicone hose bend/elbow on turbo air intake (and inter cooler piping) in my mind it seems the elbow may cause turbulence and slight air flow restriction....but maybe persons with more technical knowledge of the area or practical experience could lend their thoughts ....... i've come to realize theory and reality don't always equate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Duduglanza Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 (edited) I dont think there will be any notacable difference but still i will use bends rather than elbows if possible. Edited May 23, 2016 by Duduglanza Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Johnboy GT Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 (edited) In hydraulics there is slightly more restriction from a compact elbow as appose to a bend but tbh it's hardly going to be that noticeable for this purpose.John Edited May 24, 2016 by Johnboy GT Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gorganl2000 Posted May 24, 2016 Author Share Posted May 24, 2016 well i think i have my answer thanks to the both of you may risk with the elbow...as the space is very tight Quote Link to post Share on other sites
