Flexible Charge Piping
 

Howdy Howdy Yall. I am looking for the guy who is using goodyear hoses as charge piping. I have been on various different hose manufacture's websites for the past couple days and every hose that would work can only be ordered in 75 ft rolls. I would like to find out what brand of hose he is using. I think I remember the car being a red EG. Hope someone sees this.

I have some big radiator hose in my setup, right on the comressor. Would you be able to pick through the stock room at an autoparts store and piece something together?

Re: Flexible Charge Piping
 

That could get pricey picking up multiple hoses to slap into one. Ive looked for some type of flexible pipe too but biggest I can find locally is 1.5"

Re: Flexible Charge Piping
 

Thats what I did, my charge piping ended up costing like a total of $40, radiator hose and EMT

i had a 1.75" flexible radiator hose from the compressor to the intercooler, and it is still being used on shanerv's setup. it cant flow that well, but for $12, it was fast and easy at the time. O0

check out some semi truck supply store.

it was blown within 24 hours, the motor that is. obviously it held enough to blow it. thats all i know.

Re: Flexible Charge Piping
 

i am not talking about radiator hose. I belive the ranges were a max of around 500 degrees and 1500 psi. But still flexible.

Re: Flexible Charge Piping
 

hey sorry this is shitboxcrx on my friends name. I looked at the kanaflex 300 and can that stuff even seal onto a pipe? I would think the ridges would keep it from doing so.

Re: Flexible Charge Piping
 

Kanaflex is smooth inside, ribbed on the outside.

Kanaflex (EPDM pipe) rocks mother ------- ass. All the cars I used it on going back almost two years are all still perfectly fine.
