I need to make a few flexible ducts for turbo to intercooler, servo to
induction system.
redline MAP is 37 inches with a momentary 40 inch allowance, I believe
the pop-off is set for 42 inches.
Thats about 21 PSI tops.
I had though about using racing quality silicon radiator hoses, which
are rated to about 29 psi at 300 F.
I have also considered flexible stainless ducting, like the Cool-Flex
product. Anybody using this? My concern with using a flexible metal
ducting is work hardening form the engine movement? Should I be concerned?
Any other ideas on how to do this?
