i need 2.5" couplers

[88shadowpjct]

anyone have some couplers they're willing to sell? i'm mocking up an IC and i dont want to go spend a ton of money on vibrant couplers just yet. the couplers need to be in good condition so i can drive with them for a lil while till i make sure everything is going to work and i need to save up to buy the vibrant stuff. i dont care if they are the cheap rubber ones that come with an ebay kit, they just have to be good to use for a while (no rips or leaks, not rock hard)

i am using 2.5" piping.
this is what i need....


(2) 90 degree couplers
(3) straight couplers
(1) 45 degree coupler


thanks,
nick

when i did mine on the budget i went to the local macs hardware and bout some marine exaust tubing. got like 3 feet for around 10 bucks if i remember right. and it is legit silicone tubing.

go to the J-yard, look for 3.0 V6 Chryslers and grab the airbox to throttle body hose. It's 2.5" and has all the bends you'll need, just cut to the length/bend you need and voila. The 87-88 hoses are 2.5" the whole way through. The 89+ hoes neck down right at the TB which works great for hooking up to your stock TB and the turbo.
Here's a pic of mine. I have them between the i/c and the airbox.

they're awesome. I pressurized the whole system to 80psi on accident once. With the hose clamps they come with nothing blew off and I don't have beads on the metal pipes at all. Something in them form a bond with the pipe and make them sticky. Not sticky enough to where you can't get them off easy with the hose clamp removed but they take a lot of pressure and don't blow off.
