Default Charge pipes

My turbo looks like it has a 1.5 in pipe and my charge pipe is 2.5 in so what do i do to connect them? where do i get a adapter for it?

You can pick up adapters anywhere (almost). Home Depot has some connectors in the plumbing section, but they don't stand up to the heat very long. But they work. Or check out a speed shop or a website to order them.

You can also go to autozone and buy the exhaust adapters. That just means you now need 2 different sized couplings instead of one.

i wouldnt use home depot connectors RIGHT OFF THE TURBO. which is what it sounds like u ar doing. Use Silicon. I believe rubber adapters will melt that close to the turbo/menifold/ENGINE.

thanks to this webpage
http://www.cse.uconn.edu/~yelevich/turbo/turbo.html

i kinda knew what to buy.

and i went to http://www.jcwhitney.com and bought the pipes i need.
and everything after 2 day shipping cost came up to less than $50

i am really happy with this buy...my kit is NOW REALLY CLOSE TO FINISH. (just a BOV, and FMU left on the parts list)
