Ive been looking at a place called hitempsilicone who sells turbo couplers that have a 400psi burst pressure and its 26$ for 12" of tubing cut to size. What I was wondering is would it be ok to run a 90 degree elbow off each side of the interooler instead of the 90* metal pipes..without having to worry about them breaking??I know reg. couplers are fine but ive never delt with silocone elbows.. Im only going to be running 12psi through a 70mm. The material is 4ply,good to constant 500* temps and has a lifetime warantee. They are 45$ a piece in price and seems like a pretty good deal.

90 Degree elbow coupler's should work fine.Turbohoses.com has everything you need,if you cannot find them.

We got them over here, the silicone fittings are great, we sell only 4/5ply fittings due to lower plys breaking on other silicone. The more expensive fittings are the way to go, the cheap ones on ebay have given us alot of hassle in the past.

The ones I found are 4ply. They have a lifetime warantee against splitting/bursting as long as you use Tbolt clamps.

Jake@EPP

The T-bolt clamps are the only way to go, the worm driven ones tend to tear up the silicone. What sort of fittings are you looking for?

8 3" Tbolt clamps
2 3.25" tbolt clamps
1 2.5" tbolt clamp
4 90* either alum. or mild steel 90* bends 3"
2 90* silicone elbows 3"
1 90* 3.25" elbow..if possible stepped to a 3"(from maf to LT1 TB)--if they make such a thing
1 3-2.5" transition coupler
1 3" coupler.

and thats pretty much it.

if your coming off your throttle body at the same original angle then use the vortech or trick flow elbow. if your going straight thru and if front of your radiator you need a 4" to 3.5" silicone. the tb is same as 4" round silicone and maf is 3.5" if it helps

I sell a sharp 90deg from 4" to 3.5 for the MAF, i use alot of these in my FMIC kits. They run about $50 and are 5ply (1/4 thick).

I would opt for constant torque tbolts on those 90*s off the IC.
