Construction & Design:

The HPS Hot Side Charge Pipe is engineered with precision using mandrel-bent aluminum tubing, which preserves the pipe’s internal diameter throughout bends to maximize airflow efficiency. The aircraft-grade aluminum construction offers excellent heat dissipation and durability compared to the factory plastic or rubber components prone to cracking or collapsing under boost pressure.

Bead-rolled ends provide reinforced connection points that prevent silicone couplers from slipping or leaking under high boost conditions. The included 4-ply silicone couplers are oil resistant and rated for high temperatures, ensuring reliable performance even in demanding environments.
