Default Silicone Turbo to IC hose???
I was wondering does anyone know if there is a turbo to IC hose (think it's a 90degree bend) that comes in silicone to upgrade from the stock one on the stock IC pipe??

havent seen one. Usually upgrades include a new IC hose w/ a 90degree bend in it. I was thinking before i bought my lindsey pipe of getting a 90 and putting a coupler at each end.

Taking a protractor to my 21 year old factory hose, it's between 55° & 60° depending where I take the measurement.
