Cobra elbow

[Andreas]

How about use one on the intake side of on a A2A IC?
My worries is that the cobra elbow (those that I can get hold of) cant take the temperature on the air from the turbo.

Anyone using that set up?

Re: Cobra elbow

Are you still planning to use the stock turbo? Remember the crappy rubber pipe from the factory that connected the turbo to the IC? I didn't think that would hold up either. 150 air isn't that hot, you should be okay.

Yes the stock turbo gone be in the TY for atleast one more year.

I found that "stocker" spiral rubber hose, or atleast a it looks all the same, at a Hose manufacturer. That spiral hose was good for 300 fahrenheit.

I'm gone run another type of hose thou ,from the IC outlet to the intake, with a metal mesh layer so that the hose doesnt expand under preassure. Its good for 356 fahrenheit. Its highly resistant against oil and gasoline and a bunch of other stuff.
