Hi partners! need help!
I bought an intercooler from a member recently. Tried to install it but i ran into some problems...the intercooler came with a lower IC pipe. pasanger side. which is cut and welded to fit.




my problem is this. the driver side did not come with such commodity as you can see in the pics, its impossible for me to put on the elbow, so i need someones impute of how to mannage this bump.








does any one know of an elbow that could fit this angle?
thanks in advance..

Try those guys. They have every type of coupler you can think of.

You may want to go with a custom fabber UICP since since the LICP already is. Just my .02.

 

the driver side is an aftermarket "injen" setup. so it comes with the lower icp...but thanks for the site. ill check it out.
does any one know the size of the hose?

 

2.5" for the FMIC to UICP. That's a great site to use for couplers since they are all 4 ply silicone reinforced couplers of every shape and size.

Take it to a fabricator.

 

simple problem. go to that website buy a angular hose and bam done i did the same thing. A 45 degree bend should do the trick nicely

 

i would of made that fit perfectly.

 

i think with some adjusting you can make it fit

 

I think mifesto is right too. Loosen everything up, the clamps, the brackets on the piping, and at the brackets on the intercooler. Wiggle, twist, and pull everything so it goes together, and then come back and tighten everything down. You will be surprised how much slack you will find.

 

is that the ams replica IC because i have an ams IC going to injen piping and mine works.

 

take it to a local reputable shop im sure they'll fix ya up right!

 

Im in SD shop are becoming hard to come by...
But i think im gonna try getting a 45* and wiggle and pull everything apart... see if i can pull it together.. but the pics dont do it justice to the crazy angle its got. so maybe i can post a video so you can see what im dealing with.
Thanks in advance for all ur help!!

 

This is the reason why I hate that particular intercooler. The inlet/outlets are casted at the wrong angle.If you cut the cast outlet off, flush the cooler and weld a 45* mandrel bend on, it will fit perfect.
