Front mounted intercooler hoses

[JohnOBrien8]

As title i have a greddy front mounted intercooler with wepr piping.
Were would be the best place for me to get a full replacement hose kit as most of them are looking perished and don't look great!
any links or a heads up were to look would be great!

just measure the diamater of the ones you need and take a look on egay, merlinmotorsport or deamon tweaks and you will get them.

i would do what madman said. then spend an evening trawling ebay and you should be able to pick up a set for a pretty good price.

ok thanks fellas something for me to do tomorrow evening!

happy to help buddy

 

[JohnOBrien8]

is there only one type of wepr fmic?
does anyone know what size the stainless piping is?
i have no calipers to measure it,the only way would be to remove a pipe and might not be very accurate,
also is all the piping the same size?
Thanks
John

 

[dac69er]

measuring tape would be fine. they are normally common sizes like 2", 2.25", 2.5" etc

ok will try it! repped

 

[JohnOBrien8]

ok my intercooler piping is 2 inches i need 4 straight couplings at least 70mm in length and one 45degree coupling at least 100mm in length!
what size bore will i go for?
51mm is available which is equal to 2.007 inches would this be too tight of a fit?
would i be better getting about 3mm's bigger so they will be a good fit and tighten up nicely?
any advice appreciated!

 

[aidan]

tighter the better in my opinion

 

[JohnOBrien8]

yeah i agree but i want to be able to get them over the 2 inch stainless pipes!i ordered the 51mm ones hope they,ll do!

 

[aidan]

they will go on alright as they will sweal a small bit remember the harder it is to go on the harder it will be to come off so right choice

 

[JohnOBrien8]

sound repped!

 

[dac69er]

if the external of the metal pipes is 2" then 51mm will be spot on. they are silicone so have a bit of give.

 

[wickedep]

yeah that size is fine bro...try to replace the clips also with some t-bolt clamps whilst you're at it. they can be had cheap from ebay along with the hoses too..good luck
