eightytwoturbo Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Ok well I got my FMIC in and the outlets are 2.5'' and my intercooler piping is 2'' so is there anyway to get my 2'' piping to work on 2.5 outlets for the fmic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlderThanMe Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Maybe you could buy a tubing adapter? Or you could use some duct tape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eightytwoturbo Posted August 10, 2007 Author Share Posted August 10, 2007 Lol I think duct tape would kinda leak some air... But on a serious note I need to know because I want to start this project this weekend. I can get some type of adapter at lowe's or home depot? not sure where to find a coupler that can change like this...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chemicalblue Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 A simple set of silicone hose adapters should work. Any performance shop worth a crap should have them, even this site has add banners for very thing your looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eightytwoturbo Posted August 10, 2007 Author Share Posted August 10, 2007 Good deal, thanks for the info, I been looking on the web for a adapter and have not found anything yet... I live in a small town so a performance shop is hard to come by... will keep searching thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boardkid280z Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 it's gonna be called a reducer, and you will probably want to find a silicone one, although plain ol' rubber would work fine if you can find one at HD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrFancypants Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 Just go to an exhaust shop and get the ends swelled, then use a straight coupler. - Greg - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
