why would you put a flexpipe inline with your charge piping? just use one of the ribbed silicone connectors if you need some flex..

I think he means the flex exh piping you can get at parts stores.I used some in my first setup and it held 6 psi fine.I didn't have it on for long as my lack of good fuel management blew the bottom end before I got to far ::).I used a DSM blowoff valve on the stock DSM pipe as I think mounting/welding in a blowoff on the flex would be tough.Sure was nice to work with though.

I just want to know what an inteer coolr is.

I've always kinda wondered how much pressure that flex piping ---- could hold. Not that I'd use it, but I'm just curious.

I only had that setup running for a couple hundred kms.It also was non intercooled so their was only two pieces of flex.If it didn't leak initially I don't see why that would change over time.I'm not in anyway recommending it but it would probably get you by for a little bit.Why don't you get some crush bend pipes there super cheap and come in a variety of sizes.Take a cruise down the exhuast aisle of your local Canadian tire,Pepboys,Autozone or whatever shitmart auto place you have locally.Probably costs no more than flex pipe and providing you have good connections guranteed not to leak.

plastidip coat it and it should hold boost fine...
