Cant find ISR mod parts...

Ive been looking around at lowes and home depot and all i found were hose clamps and ducting.

I'm having the same exact problem. i went to HD and only found the 1/2" el fitting with one barbed end and the other threaded but the threaded end was 3/4" and i thought it was going to be too big to thread into the 3" pipe.

I couldn't find a 7/16 at all but i was thinking 3/8 might fit since that would be 6/16" (just 1/16" off). anyone disagree? can we just clamp the hose onto the fitting if its too loose?

and about the hose... your auto part store should sell silicon hose in the cold air intake section(plus it comes in blue, red....)

the washers and nuts should be easy to find.

basically sound purposes

but the stock setup is pretty restrictive so this mod is supposed to free up the flow

alot of people say you can get a decent amount of torque for the price.

may I suggest plastic fittings instead of brass? you can get nearly any size fitting and all you'd have to do is tap the pipe and thread the fitting(s) in. and if you're worried about sealing, a thin bead of sealant on the last few threads should seal it up.

and if you have an issue finding a 7/16 fitting, going up to 1/2 and using a 7/16 barb would be better than going down to 3/8 elle

and maybe don't restrict yourself to brass: galvanized and cast iron fittings may be an option.

drill the hole in the pipe slightly smaller than you need and then use a 'tap' to cut threads the hole so the fitting screws in. that way you don't need a nut on the inside.
