IHI RHB52 VJ11 turbo help
hello, i've read a few turbo projects with the ihi rhb5 turbo. I manage to obtain one from the junk and had her rebuilt last week. I ran into a problem with the piping. I wanted to use 2" aluminum pipes but the turbo outlet measures at 1.75-1.77". Is there a way I can use a 2" coupler on the outlet? Like cut about 1" of the stock rubber hose and wedge that btwn the 2" and the outlet? man that sounds so ghetto.....has anyone tried that?
EDIT if it matters Its going on a 1990 civic dx hatch
