Features and Solutions

Focusing on what's important

Construction

Made of top-quality light weight aluminum CNC mandrel bends. Mandrel bends allow for optimal flow. The end of each section is bead rolled to keep couplers from slipping off.

Clamping

When considering worm gear clamps vs T-bolt clamps for the solution to clamping the couplers to the aluminum intercooler tubing, we've found that worm gear clamps are the best for this application. T-bolt clamps can create too much force, and end up colapsing the tubing, making for a looser connection over time.

They also are not optimal for the space provided behind the bead roll due to the extra wide bannd, and often clamp over the bead roll instead of behind it on the tubing. This can create poor clamping.

In our experiance, worm gear clamps offer the superior clamping solution in this application, and we use only the highest quality stainless worm gear clamps availble.

Routing

The PHR Cold Side Intercooler Pipes route up through where the battery sits in its factory location. The battery will need to be relocated and battery tray will need to be removed. PHR provides a 3d printed cut template that aligns with existing bolt holes in the chassis to provide perfect marking for creating a hole to route the piping through.

Boost Braces

For high boost applications when you might even more holding capability, boost braces can be added across the couplet to create an mechanical link, that virtually ensures the pipes cannot separate the coupler cannot pop off.

If you want to add boost braces, you will need to have the bolt bosses welded to the tubing, turbo, and/or intercooler. PHR can provide this service, but you will need to contact us to do so. Otherwise a good local welding shop should be able to handle the job.

You will need one boost kit for each connection you want to make. 3 Kits would cover each connection on this kit.
