Bought a Greddy elbow, now what do I need to connect my IC?
 

I bought a Greddy elbow and just installed it. Now I am unable to connect it to my IC (Pettit cool charge II). I tried using the extra long silicone tube that came with my IC but it is not long enough to reach the elbow.
I'm guessing I need a third pipe now, but where do I find one and what exactly do I need?:scratch:

One option: Measure the distance and order a slighter larger pipe from Burns and cut it to size (which is what I basically did for my old setup).


Find Custom Exhaust, Header Collectors, Race Mufflers & More | Burns Stainless

Takes it to a shop that does custom turbo installations and they can do the piping.
Simple solutions require thinking.

I'm not aware of any shops in KC that do that, but I'll keep asking.

You might ping Jesse Prather and see if he has some tubing laying around that he can let you have for a small fee. You can also check KC Trends.

1. Meassure IC pipe diameter and Greddy elbow inlet diameter
2. Meassure how long pipe you need
3. If identical in diameter, visit an exhaust dealer and tell em what you need, ask em if they can cut a pipe to size, in stainless.
4. Get the silicone couplings you need
5. Fit the things together

Looks like you have a Pettit CCII. No direct experience, but wouldn't the Greddy 2 pc pipe kit have worked?

I was able to source a used pipe from the 2 pc kit, however looks like it was cut by the previous owner. I can use my 45* silicone coupler with it to make it all work but I'll need to cut both of them (I think). Here's how it currently looks when I overlay them.

I'm just trying to figure out where the cuts should be made. I can either cut the silicone really short and deal with having a good seal around the bend, or cut the pipe a little bit and cut the silicone couple a little bit so the seal is around the straight section of the metal pipe. Thoughts/Suggestions?

I'd actually cut both... You'll have to cut the pipe as IMO, that's too close to the IC to have a good bend. However, you don't want too much silicone either so I would sort of "split the difference".
