Take for example the boost tubes that live between the Turbocharger and the Intercooler in your FL5 Civic Type R or DE5 Integra Type S. There’s actually two of them because the other side of the Intercooler has a second boost tube that connects the cold side of the FMIC to your hard side charge pipe and up runs up into the intake manifold, but not before making a hard 90-degree bend. AND! It’s at this bend where we find the third piece of the puzzle at the throttle body connection. We call this last piece simply the Throttle Body coupler or TB coupler for short. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"listing-h2\"\u003eOk, now that you got all of that….you want to ditch the stock factory EPDM aka rubber that these components are made from. Why? It’s too soft and flexible. Over repeated heat cycles it also breaks down and gets seven softer. Then, under high boost, it expands. Expansion means more lag. Less boost pressure goes where it needs to go and more gets absorbed and lost in the system. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"listing-h3\"\u003eSo, what we’ve created is the 27WON upgrade kit you see here consisting of: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"emoji-list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThicker and stronger wire reinforced hoses.

This process of decay is exaggerated in a high temperature and pressure application as well as UV light radiation. \u003cb\u003eSilicone is not affected by UV radiation nor as much by the extreme temperatures found in the engine bay like the hot air coming out of the turbo that is usually above 300 degrees F.
