turbo inlet elbow

Post by snailslow »

ive been having lots of problems with hoses n crap on my wagon! lol got most of it fixed, but recently ive been having a spudder/ boost cut.. so i find a few broken things. fix it and a few days later its back.. this elbow has been to hell and back.. i tried jb weld, which broke off, silicone which didn't work well and now im going to try polyurethne(sp) until i can make a metal new intake.. idk how to upload pics on here, but i will figure it out when i can

Welcome to the BBS.

You're really better off trying to find a new one or a better shaped used one at a junkyard or from someone on the board. There is a silocone one that Samco makes that is nice, but not too cheap.

As for pictures, you need to have them hosted on a server, something like image shack, photobucket, etc.

Do you have a turbo or non-turbo motor?

It looks like it would physically fit the non-turbo setup with the addition of a MAF adapter plate, but I'd recommend keeping your stock airbox and removing the snorkel in the fender.

"Secrete Weapon Air" sounds like military grade lingerie for your car.
