• Reccomendations on replacing the turbo -> intake pipe? by Jettagli16v on 30 Oct, 2008 12:56
• The rubber tube from my turbo outlet to the intake manifold was old and brittle and dripping diesel juice all over the intake.
  
  I Bought a 2" silicone 45,
  trimmed it down, but it does not work too well:
  1) impossible to install without a slight flattening of the hose
  2) turbo outlet is bigger than intake manifold inlet.
  
  Any ideas of a nice hose that will work here?*
  
  **Other than a FMIC!!

• You can get a silicone 90 that is larger on one end.
  2.25 on one end and 2 on the other..
  
  Is that what you need?

• Holy cow!  Thanks for posting that link - I've been looking everywhere for components to build a new intake duct & was having a very hard time finding what I needed.  This place looks great!

• Im going to double check my measurements and buy one.
  I think I may need a 2" X 1.75" or maybe a 2" X 2".
  Anyone know off the top of their head for Garrett T3 TD?
  
  Thanks a lot, ZukGod!
