Why the hell are couplers so expensive!?
 

All I need is 2 90* couplers with decently long leg lengths so I can put this front mount on my colt and the cheapest I can find for 2 of them shipped is $86 on ebay.. Is it just me or is that not a f%&kin retarded high price for 2 damn couplers??

on extreme psi i believe they go for 28 bux a piece bro.

Re: Why the hell are couplers so expensive!?
 

Those only have 2.5" leg lengths.

Re: Why the hell are couplers so expensive!?
 

what size are you looking for, and what leg length.

HoseTechniques has 90° in their py350 from 2-3" all with just over 4" leg length for under $20 each

Nevermind they're sold out of 2.25". Go figure..

Sometimes the cheaper the coupler, the softer they are. I like the Extremepsi couplers. Theyre the right amount of hardness for me. Vibrant couplers are even harder but I fild the ID a hair smaller than I like.

The most this system will see might be 10psi. I'm keeping it at wastegate pressure.

If you needed straight ones I'd send you to O'Reillys. We stock silicone "radiator hoses", aka straight lengths of coupler. ;)

Are you reading anything I'm saying? I need 90* couplers. Yes I know where to get straight ones and for cheap. I'm specifically talking about 90* couplers and how ridiculously expensive they are with at least a decently long leg length.

Re: Why the hell are couplers so expensive!?
 

www.boostcontrollers.com has a lot of silicone couplers available. I know MAP has Vibrant couplers at decent prices too.

I bought 2 long leg couplers off ebay awhile back for a decent price, and they've lasted without any issue at 35psi.

I still have one, but the legs are slightly cut down. It's black. If you're interested I could maybe sell you the 1 I still have if you wanted.

I'll try to find where I bought them on ebay though and let you know if i find them.

BTW mine is 2.5", what size do you need?


Edit:
Pretty sure these are the ones I bought. Black 90deg with long leg lengths:
2.5"

or if you needed 2.25"

And these are also reasonably priced:

That's still almost $100 for just 2 couplers. Am I the only one that thinks thats a ridiculous price? I wouldn't mind paying that much if I was doing an all out build on my talon that would see 30+psi, but this is for my colt and I'm just doing a budget build. It will see like 10psi max..

Cool, let me know. The cheapest I found on ebay was 32 a piece. Plus 14 for shipping. Which is just as expensive as name brand couplers.
