Compressor Outlet Elbow
 
Working on my IC piping and I'm trying to decide what type of turbo elbow to run on the outlet of my compressor. I have a T04S housing so it has a 2.5" out and the IC of course is 2.75". Does anyone make a 2.5" to 2.75" 90 deg. coupler or cast elbow? What other options do people run?

I bought a samco 90 degree bend hose that is perfect for what you're looking for---it's good for up to 40 psi, and has a 2.5 inch diameter opening on one end and a 2.75 inch on the other.

I may actually be selling it, I just have to get my fmic installed and see what kind of angle I'm dealing with. If you can wait a week, I'll let you know.

ATP Turbo has what you might be looking for:

I use one of these and I took a 2.75 hose to it. To make it fit over the elbow, I cut a 1 inch strip from a 2.5 hose. The 2.75 hose fits perfectly over the top of it and now it mates to the 2.75 aluminum IC tubing.

2.5" to 2.75" turbohoses strait coupler attached to 90 aluminum pipe if your outlet is strait up. You may have clearance issues with the strut bar. Mine is clocked that way and I used an Efini air pipe (from the Y-pipe kit) cutting off the flange for clearance.

Hey Fritts, I'm probably going to end up keeping my samco hose. I bought it from www.CarV2.com and was very happy with the service :)

I also use the Samco 2.5 to 2.75. Good item. I also tried another brand turbo_____. All they did was send me a 2.75 90 elbow and a small piece of 2.5 to slide under the 90 on the turbo side. Bad idea for mid to high boost. I blew it off on the dyno at 23psi. Talk about being scared!
