My dodgy Intercooler pipe sealing


Recommended Posts

The following pics below is of my intercooler system as done by the previous owner. As you can see, the previous owner did a bodgey ass job of sealing. On the turbo outlet side,there is a 3 inch silicone hose joining a 2.5 inch metal pipe that joins to the 2 1/4 inch intercooler pipe inlet.

On the intercooler outlet side, the 2 1/4 inch outlet is joined via a 2.5 inch silicone hose.

As you may have possibly read in the drag section, i did a 16.0 flat down the quater mile. Looks like this intercooler bodgey sealing may have contributed to the poor time.

IC 2 1/4 outlet joined with a 2.5 inch hose >

Comparisons, 2 1/4 inch, 2.5 inch, 3 inch. Im going to make my IC outlet half 2 inch and half 2 1/4.
