diy silicone intercooler pipe(with pics)

[sambryant]

hi all, today i spent some of my time making my own intercooler pipe.
i started off with 2 45 angled silicon pipe and a 60 mm joiner.
here is a few pics showing my effort










over all im really happy and it cost me under £30 to do

Very tidy indeed Sam, very tidy indeed! Tell me, on an odd point how did you get your bay looking so untainted with 'road'.......or clean in other words lol?

 

[sambryant]

thanks m8. tbh im not sure how it stays so clean. i give the car a clean once a week and give the engine bay a wipe over evey month, but i never seem to need to spend too much time on it

Nice Diy boost hose and a fraction of the price of updated ones.
Also this has giving me some ideas for my custom alloy IC pipwork project.
