np, just found out 5" and larger silicone couplers are used on jet ski exhausts

5.5" - third page down.

I used 5" tubing on mine and welded it directly to the compressor housing. The i.d. of the housing matches up almost perfectly with 5" tubing.

good to know. i was thinking about welding a v-band to it and just getting one of the flanges made that would act as an adapter.

probably cheaper then trying to get 5.5 pipe and or bends.

I'm bringing this back from the dead....

So... just check the price on that 36" stick of 5.5 silicone... $190 haha

Screw that noise. Anyone have any new sources, considering its been like 5 years? Funny thing is that this coupler is for the same turbo that still hasn't made it on any of my vehicles. I'm on a 10 year build plan.

Update:

Few sources:
http://store.airflo.com/rubber-hoses---clamps.html
http://intakehoses.com

Here it is: Black Silicone 5.5"x6"

http://intakehoses.com/Merchant2/mer...egory_Code=SC4

Anyone have a source for 5.5" or 6" v-bands?
