Need to replace silicone couplers on Vortech
Hi,
I've got a used Vortech waiting to be installed and I noticed that the silicone couplers look pretty shitty and wanted to replace them. Just curious if anyone with a Vortech has done this already and what you ended up using.
No sense re-inventing the wheel here. Hopefully I can benefit from someone's experience.
And Yes, I did a search for SAMCO and VORTECH, etc. before asking!
Thanks,
Erich

Yeah, but I want the pretty blue ones, of course...
They may have only 2k on them from you, but wouldn't Ty have put a few miles on 'em?
I still think it's hilarious I got all your stuff (from both you and Ty) without really putting 2 and 2 together.
And, hey, that Raptor BOV looks good! How's it sound?

I'm using hose techniques couplers and t-bolt clamps. I ordered directly from their website.
