Exclamation Tubing to buy for Spearco Intercooler?

I have a Spearco Intercooler that I plan to install soon that uses OEM tubing, and I'm wondering if any of the tubing can be replaced with cheap silicone tubing to improve efficiency. I don't plan to be changing out the charge pipe. Thanks!

It didn't come with new tubes? Mine came with a pipe for the driver's side and a few silicon couplers.

Evolution Racewerks has and sells upper IC piping that fits perfectly in between Both the Spearco FMIC and the ER Chargepipe.

I used it for xo2 Spearco Knock Off.


You need a 45degree elbow for hot side, & a hump coupler 4 inch wouldn't be a bad idea for lower on the cold side, and stock elbow, HP autowerks elbow, or vibrant makes oversize colored elbows for up top.

I had ER charge pipe and xo2 at the same time. Hump coupler at the bottom will allow the cold side piping to flex a bit to help reduce coupler kink.
