PVC Piping for intercooler?
#11
Twin Turbo How-To
That guy has been doing it for a long time like that. I wouldn't trust any plastic for intake piping unless it was post intercooler. You'd wanna do something about the PVC being slick, my PVC boost leak tester works its way off and hits me in the face sometimes. Dont' know if hairspray would be ok for that...
I prefer using junkyard intake hoses. It's a lot cheaper and easier to deal with than PVC even. Just don't use the molded ones, only the type that look like multi-layer radiator hoses, or hard pipes. Walked out with enough to go across the engine bay twice for $5
