I was reading about a S/C mustang that used, " gorilla grip " on the chargepipes to help them stay on and sealed.

Just wondering if anyone has heard of this or anything else like it.

I have heard of using cheap *** hair spray to help keep the pipes from blowing off.

dont run so many couplers

 

Bead the end of your pipes.

 

for a quick fix on one of my couplers I just used alittle gel super glue. fixed the problem.

 

I don't have any issues with the pipes coming off, but every bit helps when your making 400whp with a mistu TD04 turbo. Even small boost leaks drain power, essp. when your maxing the turbo out.

I just read it in a mustang magizine, and had me thinking. I might use a bit of "aquanet" hair spray next time I have the turbo off. My buddy has a SVO mustang and says it works well.

 

I used to use aquanet hairspray in my potato gun for a fuel/propellant. Read the first 3 or 4 ingredients, you'll laugh and know why it makes a good fuel.

 

I used 3m spray adhesive. It held good up to 20psi with worm clamps and no beads. Above 20 they started to slip off.

 

Yea, I think the heat gets to the 3m stuff. I spike 23psi, hold about 17-18psi.
I spend hours boost leak testing...

 

Quit ordering shitty $80 eBay pipe kits that aren't bead rolled.
