AdriaanRobert96 Posted December 28, 2022 Author Share Posted December 28, 2022 Well it’s safe to say I’ll stick to wide sets as usual since the clamp method was too much of a hassle and it didn’t choke it deep enough Nvm the last part Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They seem like a much stronger and more durable option. https://www.amazon.com/Kyostar-Stainless-Assortment-Adjustable-Titanium/dp/B07Q7H18G4 https://www.amazon.com/T-Bolt-Standard-Intercooler-Downpipe-SL-2702/dp/B09PMLSKC8 https://www.amazon.com/Hilitchi-Stainless-Rounded-Intercooler-57-65MM/dp/B08P5HG55H Edited March 25, 2023 by Jared P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared P Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 (edited) Acquired some hose clamps from Home Depot, various tapes, and a cheap vice from Harbor Freight today. Going to make a hose clamp choker tomorrow. Edited March 25, 2023 by Jared P 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This feels safer and more comfortable 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
