Crimped Outlet tube??

On my 94 T/a, I have a P1sc w/ a dual core ic.

The outlet of the charger is at a strange angle to the inlet of the IC... and it crimps the hose a little. What should I do?? The kit originally came off a 97Z, and I have also made the arrangements so the tubing would fit. What did you guys do?

I wonder how different the P-600 kits are from the P1SC as far as that outlet is concerned. The design on the P-600 we installed was terrible. I thought that the D1 and P1SC were totally different. But I see you are also having a problem with that hose not fitting that well .Huh

Kevin! How are you?

Yeah, the hose is a little compressed. I mean- theoretically, it has the same space inside, because the sides push out...just so long as it doesnt get too crimped it cuts off flow. I dunno. You'd think they'd come up with a better design. Maybe I should have kept the Vortech?

What else is new? I'll have to email you.

I thought about that too- use 2 3" hoses to clamp a steel section in there. Might be tight.

Maybe I could use one of my excess 3" tubes that I cut from my exhaust? It is already in a 90* bend, maybe I could have someone try to bend it farther, even if minor compression bend?
