Im lookin for all new silicone connectors for when I do my 3" crossover. I odered the pipe already but I need connectors...

Im thinking 90 off the blower, to a 45, to the crossover, to another 45 then a straight section cut to size..I may make it with the 45 only but I may need the straight section as well..

I will also have to beef up the outlet of the blower to accomidate the 3" correct ?? Hows the best way to do that ?

I found this place:
http://www.ptrsds.com/silicone_turbo_hose%20index.htm
but i wanted to know if anyone else has another place to purchase these ?? I dont wanna spend $120 and be disapointed at the quality.

Thanks alot for any feedback

atpturbo.com is a nice place to get them. For the outlet you can just get a transition coupler from x" to 3". I cant remember off hand what size the outlet is on the blower.

BTW I would use a transition from the blower into a short piece of 3" pipe. Then cross it over with a 3" 45 into the straight portion of pipe. Then run a 45 into a shoet piece of pipe with MAF flange.
