We make it yours
Complete Customization
PHR will build a complete cold side intercooler pipe for your MKIV Supra. We build on a chassis here at our shop to ensure that it will fit on your car.
Please note: PHR 3.0" Cold Side Intercooler Pipes are built to order. We will require you to send in your intake manifold and throttle body if it is anything other than one of the following intake manifolds:
- Hypertune
- Plazmaman
- Greddy
- Stock Twin Turbo
- Stock NA
We have these manifolds in house or have jigs for them and are able to build off these. But if you have another brand or style of intake manifold, we can't build this intercooler pipe without having you send in your intake manifold and throttle body. We build to the PHR 4.5, 5, or 6 inch intercoolers.
You must contact PHR prior to ordering this. You must supply the intake manifold, throttle body, and/or intercooler to PHR for fitment on our mockup chassis unless it is deemed unnecessary.
Please inform us of any electric fan setups, batteries or other items we need to be aware of so we can build the piping to fit.
This price is for the basic coupler to throttle body and coupler to intercooler style intercooler piping. If needing a different clamping style, the cost of the pipe will not change, but customer will need to purchase the additional flange and clamp assemblies.
Features and Solutions
Focusing on what's important
Construction
Made of top-quality lightweight aluminum CNC mandrel bends. Mandrel bends allow for optimal flow. The end of each section is bead rolled to keep couplers from slipping off.
Under the frame rail
The design of these pipes route underneath the frame rail, and around to the intercooler. This will require removal or trimming of the inner fender well plastics panels as well as modification or cutting of the AC Line brackets which must be lowered to accommodate the routing of these pipes. These plastic panels and brackets block debris from the tires from entering the engine bay, and also hold up the lower plastic panels.
We've found that removal doesn't make much of a difference for debris or dirt entering, but if you are in an exceptionally dusty or dirty area (like living on a dirt road), we'd recommend trimming the panels to fit around the piping rather than removing them. If you do choose to remove them, you will need to add some zip ties or other holding method to the lower panels as well to keep them secure.
Additional Services
We can weld the blow off valve flange and air temperature sensor bung to your intercooler pipe for you.
Because we have a chassis we work on here at the shop, we know the best place to install the blow off valve, so you can have this done before you receive the intercooler piping. This save you time and money and can be very convenient.
There will be an option to add a blow of valve or just the flange as well as the service when you click "ADD TO CART" above. The same applies for the air temperature sensor bung.
Worm Gear Clamps
When considering worm gear clamps vs T-bolt clamps for the solution to clamping the couplers to the aluminum intercooler tubing, we've found that worm gear clamps are the best for this application. T-bolt clamps can create too much force, and end up collapsing the tubing, making for a looser connection over time.
They also are not optimal for the space provided behind the bead roll due to the extra wide band, and often clamp over the bead roll instead of behind it on the tubing. This can create poor clamping.
In our experience, worm gear clamps offer the superior clamping solution in this application, and we use only the highest quality stainless worm gear clamps available.
Boost Braces
For high boost applications when you might even more holding capability, boost braces can be added across the couplet to create a mechanical link, that virtually ensures the pipes cannot separate the coupler cannot pop off.
If you want to add boost braces, you will need to have the bolt bosses welded to the tubing, turbo, and/or intercooler. PHR can provide this service, but you will need to contact us to do so.
You will need one boost kit for each connection you want to make. 3 Kits would cover each connection on this kit.
