Default Install Help Intercooler piping noise

Ok my intercooler piping is bolt to compressor and then its help together by 2 silicone conectors then int then silcone connector and tb and annother silicone nconnector..

now when I accelerate or decelerate actually and let the rpms bounce it makes a ton of pipes hiting stuff noise lol for a lack of a better term...

my pipe goes thru a 2 metal sheets and i was owndering what can I put to keep it from knocking into the frame... can i make a metal thing with some kind of protection to keep it from making a noise... what do people use here?

I have an 11 dollar fix...Energy Suspension mount inserts.

Sure your car will vibrate a little more at idle (ok alot more) but this not only keeps your engine stable but also helps with wheel hop and shifting ease. Give them a whirl!

Than make them yourself. You can fill your mounts with urethane. They're not going to be as strong as inserts but they will be better and you'll notice a difference
