intercooler piping connectors..
 
Does anyone know what kind of place to go to locally to get some silicon hose connectors? If not, what else can I use? I did a search and someone mentioned going to Napa and getting radiator hose. Napa isn't open (it's Sunday) so I went to a few other places and they didn't have anything big enough. I'm looking for 2 1/4" and 2 1/2" ID stuff...

This is driving me crazy. http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emsmilep.gif I have everything ready except for the piping from the turbo to the intercooler. I have the turbo installed, downpipe installed, oil lines, and even the intercooler to throttle body side plumbed together. But I ran out of those connectors. I really hope I don't have to mail order this stuff...

you can get them from
http://www.bakerprecision.com

they're pretty expensive though. You mite want to ask ben@importparts if they can sell you just the connectors that are from a drag kit or something. depending on the size of your ic , it mite work for you.

For now you can goto the home depot and get the pcv sewer hose connectors. That is if you cant get them locally. I would definetly not keep them---just use em as a temp fix. HTH

thanks for the feedback guys. I ended up finding what I needed at TruckPro. I had never been to that place, but a Autozone employee recommended I try there and sure enough, they had what I wanted. I am very happy I didn't have to mail order it. Hopefully this will be done tonight.
