How-To Beading Intercooler Piping...

[bova80]

naw just needed to make some room for the synapse valve and cobb SF so i cut the "S" pipe that wraps around the valve down by the fender and with my brail battery i was able to make it a straight shot to the fender i will post picks for ya later on today maybe

nice can't wait to see.

some pics of the custom corksport i guess you would call it... also the last pic is the pipe i cut out from the corksport and the first pic shows what i replaced it with. enjoy.

[Dr. D]

helps keep your charge pipe from blowing off

can anyone elaborate more on this, would like a full explaination.

if u dont have a pipe bead on any pipe that has to deal with ur turbo u run the risk of leaking air or it popping off at any given time.. with the pipe bead there and lets say u have a t-clamp or a worm clamp u can tighten the clamp behind the pipe bead and it cant slip off because the bead will block the clamp from moving..

you da man

Hey, Dr. D! Looks good, I like all the pictures.

Could you explain to me what that is on your recirc tube though? I've not seen something like that before.

 

[illeztimportz]

oooh i understand, pretty obvious lol ...thanks for clarifying

This Doctor Octopus looking thing. I apologize if it's blatantly obvious to everyone else. I just haven't seen one of these yet.

 

[Dr. D]

oh i see. thats the synapse synchronic by-pass valve. three lines run to it: 2 VAC lines and a BOSST ONLY source. helps open the valve faster and gives it more of a stock feel when daily driver... like when you r on the highway got to pass someone and let off a little bit and the car jumps back and forth b/c the valve opened completely. this helps combat that.

I manage to learn something every day from folks on these forums. Thanks for the explanation!

So essentially, the valve itself can throttle to a percentage open versus something like a Forge BPV that is either all open or all closed?

I can't take credit for this but thought it was another pretty cool way to do the pipe beading!

I snatched this from the below link
