So where would i order one and what does it look like lol.

i definitly feel dumb for the fact i had a good feeling there was suppose to be some sort of gasket between my s475 and the cold pipe v-band but never put one in it nor had had one with the kit. Only reason i decided now i need one is i figured id do a pressure test on the intercooler and piping to check for leaks since i was only gettin 45psi on the big tune. Well, after hearing and feeling a huge woosh of air, i think i found it lol. then after talking with ruben and another buddy of mine, i was informed, there SHOULD BE an o-ring in there. lol

And yes, ive been running it this way even when i bent the rods :eek:. huge blonde moment :roflmao:. May the jokes start......

:spit::rofl::rofl:


Send me pic of said O ring location on 475 James

Its between the compressor housing amd the cold pipe. That v-band that holds both together there is suppose to be an o-ring i guess. I dont see a groove but then again, i dunno what kind of o-ring goes thwre (round, square, sheethed type, ect).

If there isn't then use rtv like I said b4:thumb:

James if i have learned anything over the years it's to not listen to this guy... his truck has a built engine, slicks, big injectors, and lots of air and still runs mid 11's :D My truck will run with his faggot LMM :D

I dont see it holdin ruben for as much air that was rushing out of it. Maybe i need a new
v-band clamp too?

Oh really...when is that? Your bucket will never run:roflmao::roflmao: you are still, and always be slow:thumb::coolspot:

Try the rtv and if not send pipe to Trent and he will make a new one with the flange that has an o ring:thumb:
