Re: stupid intercooler piping.
hair spray. Spray some in the coupler and some on the pipe. put the coupler on the pipe, clamp down. wait 30 minutes and then test 'er out.

Re: stupid intercooler piping.
Put either a bead of weld around the outside edge to create a ridge, out 4 sheet metal screws will work too. That's what I did on some of my aluminum pipes that lacked a ridge.

anyway, if toothpaste can fix a dvd, then hair spray will take care of your ic pipe!! |
Re: stupid intercooler piping.
haha cool. well to the store i go

Re: stupid intercooler piping.
And if hairspray doesn't do it, go to home depot and pick up some 3M Super 90 spray adhesive. It's in the paint department and I doubt you'd even need clamps anymore. O0

Re: stupid intercooler piping.
Hairspray works. Well, on bicycle handlebars it does atleast. Goes on easy then stays on tight. ;) ;D I see alot of people blow chargepiping. I have yet too. God bless, I guess.

Re: stupid intercooler piping.
the best solution besides welding is to take it to a metal fab shop and get them to roll a bead if they want too much get your own roller http://www.eastwoodco.com/shopping/p...1&keyword=bead

Automotive goop.
Very, very tacky. Works very good on TB/Carbs & IC's. Not always so good on the compressor. If the compressor tends to get very hot, the goop won't always hold. |
