hi,
i ordered a ssautochrome intercooler kit from ebay (i dont want to hear people bitching about how ssautochrome is shit cause frankly i dont give a fuck) anyway...there are 3 pipes included with the kit, but i cant figure out how to get the hotpipe side that goes from 2.25-3 inches to reach the intercooler using my stock hotpipe. it seems a little short. has anyone had problems with this?

thanks

well if it doesnt fit exactly then have an aluminum piece cut and use gromets and hose clamps to match and seal..show a pic of what you mean exactlt also when posting a question like this...i may be able to help better if i can see what you mean...

If you were referring to me, I did have a reason: you seemed to have a bad attitude while at the same time asking for people's help.

If I somehow misread that, then my bad.

In any case, ssautochrome.com shows 4 pipes included in their SR20DET intercooler piping kit. So, my guess is that one of those would be a new hot pipe.

wellps...no problem no hard feelings...i was just tired of hearing people say how shitty ssautochrome is....and i didnt want this thread to turn into an ssautochrome flaming thread so meh...yea the ebay one uses a different hotpipe than the one shown on their website, but ive seen pictures of it installed with the different pipe on, ill do a lil more research.

i was just wonderin if anyone had bought the kit and got it to work.

thanks all

i got mine from ebay and it came with 4 pipes not 3....it was a SSA one as well....but the hot pipe is basically extended a lil longer on one side than that of the stock one. So if anything buy a pipe from pep boys in the exhaust section and an extra coupler and u should be in good shape.... good luck tho
