Need a 2" ID 90 Degree Elbow and a 3" to 2.5" reducer. What are my options, where's the cheapest I can find these. Any local alternatives to something like ebay that wants 25 bucks for the reducer and the same amount for the elbow.

whatever you do, dont go to http://www.turbohoses.com

not because of their product quality (in fact, the quality is pretty awesome)--- they are just REAL expensive. I ended up paying a little over $200 for all of my hoses and clamps (5 hoses, 10 clamps). Some of the reducers and 90 deg bend reducers were as expensive as $60 each.

Uhmm if you want some cheaper ones I know 240sxmotoring.com has some that arent too bad. They're kinda all over the place. If you want a real cheap option try cutting up big radiator hose from napa-- Ive seen it done and with nice clean clamps it doesnt even look that bad.

we dont sell transition couplers or 90deg bends we sell t-bolts and staight same sized couplers and offer free shipping these products....as well as aluminum bends if you want that unique bling bling IC piping look

however skilled tig welding is needed to give it that beautiful finish on connections

They're a DSM site, but I've bought so many gaskets, mandrel bends, flanges, connectors and clamps from them, it's insane. -Jeff
