Hey everyone, im looking for a 90 Degree reducer silicone hose that transitions from 2 inches to 3 inches. Does anyone have for sale / knows a place that sells / or knows where i can find this specific coupler? I have tried at least a dozen places and no one carries it.

High temp silicone might carry them, www.hightempsilicone.com There site doesn't seem to be working properly at the moment so I can't check but you could call or email them. Delt with them several times, excellent quality product & great customer service.

Are you running a 3" LIP with a 2" outlet turbo?

My 2" to 2.5" 90* HTS elbow is pretty tight to the front motor mount with a slim fan. You may want to consider doing the transition in stages: 2" to 2.5" 90* elbow 2.5" piping to the FMIC (alot more clearance) and then a 2.5" to 3" straight transition into the FMIC

Yeah i am running a 3" lower intercooler pipe. The turbo im using (SCM-61) has the compressor housing angled enough as to allow me to do this. Its extremely tight with barely any clearance but i think it will work. If not im gonna do what you suggested. Thanks
