Just wondering what size silicon joiner people have used for there intercooler piping, where the turbo outlet pipes join into one.
The alloy pipe measures 2 3/8" and im using to 2 1/2" piping, does a 2 1/2" straight joiner clamp down enoughonto the outlet pipe?
Hope this makes sence

I would use a reducer coupler instead of putting a pipe into the wrong sized coupler. When under boost, you will have a chance of popping off.

2.5" coupler is just a bit too loose, a 2.25" can be strecthed onto the pipe with a bit of lube. I use 2.25"- 2.5" reducers for my custom IC setups.

Thanks for that, I have been looking for a 2 1/2" to 2 3/8" reducer but havent been able to find one in NZ.
Ill go with a 2 1/4"-2 1/2" reducer and squeeze it on.
Why would I want a 3"-2 3/4" reducer for the throttle body Ric?
