Turbo Hose and Couplers???
« on: February 03 2007, 10:37:23 PM »
Where did you guys get yours???  Noticed that my intercooler hose had a hole in it so I'm looking to replace all of them.

Turbo Hose and Couplers???

Geez, I bought a set of Kenne Bell ones, while they're good, there are far better out there. But I couldn't tell you off the top of my head. I had a friend who said you can get it DIRT cheap at places that sell truck parts, like semis and such. As far as the clamps go, get the T bolt ones, but again, I'm not sure who has the best deal.

I got my clamps from Jay Carter - and the hoses from Meese, but that doesn't help you. :)

Actually, I hear "constant torque" clamps are better..

That's what I have, not that I need them, I got them for free.

Like Natty, my hoses are from Kenne-Bell.

Meant diameters for the hoses,    cuz kits @GBody were pretty cheap but listed for 86-87 GN's not TTA's.

Same motor, except the heads/headers and the vacuum brakes. But wait, I'm not sure if the intercooler is the same or in the same location though.
