How do I mount this interheater??
https://hometown.aol.com/dwmcintosh2...turboparts.jpg
It doesn't have any bolt holes mounts or anything? I have no way to weld aluminium so I'm not realy sure what to do. I guess I could just weld mounts the charge pipes coming in and out of it and just hold it in by the couplers. I don't know. what would you guys do? |
Re: How do I mount this interheater??
Couplers and your bumper will hold it on. Don't even worry about it. :l

Re: How do I mount this interheater??
jb weld a flat piece of aluminim were you want mounts, just make it a decent size so you get some surface area for it to stick.

Re: How do I mount this interheater??
or wire it on by the end clamps

Re: How do I mount this interheater??
duck tape....quack quack

Re: How do I mount this interheater??
yeah jb weld FTW. Use it to attach brackets or something to the intercooler. then bolt it on to the bumper support.
Zipties could work, but would be more temporary. ^ lol duct tape. |
Re: How do I mount this interheater??
if you attach small mounting tabs to the charge pipes on both sides and use good couplers and t-bolt clamps that thing will never move, i actually think its easier to do it this way than to mount the cooler its self..

Long/multiple zipties

Re: How do I mount this interheater??
Dude where is your bumper support. In a crx I would never take that off. You can cut out the portion that the intercooler hits but you have to box it up. Not a good idea.

Re: How do I mount this interheater??
yep... zip ties are all i (and accordepicenter) used. the piping and couplers do most of the work for you.

Re: How do I mount this interheater??
zip ties are handy too if you ever have to take it off/remount it later on
|
Re: How do I mount this interheater??
My zipties broke and the bumper currently resides on the bottom of my bumper
I used the 3/16" heavy duty ones to They just wear down from daily abuse You need something a bit more solid I would say Not hard to make a few tabs for it to rest on |
Re: How do I mount this interheater??
just use the metal strapping with holes in it-- i think its usually used to ------ support plumbing. I've used it for hanging exhaust and for my intercooler. Just wrap it around the opening on both ends and find a place to bolt it to
