Wet Exhaust Hose? Turbo Hose?
Man, I am so tired of looking around at boat shop/diesel shop for some turbo hose to hook my chargepipes together. I went to like 10 different boat stores that sells boat accesories and i cant find one that has wet exhaust hose or turbo hose.
I also checked NAPA. They did not understand what kind of hose i was talking about. So i went online. Ebay auction. But I do not want to pay more than $30 for hoses,
And I check Home depot for couplers. But they dont have my size. I need one that is 2.5" inch in diameter.

You should just go behind the counter at the auto parts store and grab a radiator hose that is 2 1/2". Other than that you are going to pay an *** load for silicone hoses on ebay.

Considering most cooling systems run at 16 lbs. and high heat I would say it would work with no problems.
It depends on what you want to do with the hose regarding straight or angled hose. You could use it for a tight bend or just use it for connecting pipes together.

Wow, the first diesel repair place I went to in my town (------- small) had it. WTF? Time to whip out your phone book and call em' all.
Anyone have any good links to some decently priced online sources?
