• Application: This 90 degree reducing elbow suits large turbo intercooler systems where the charge pipe needs to make a sharp 90 degree turn and step down significantly from 101mm to 76mm in a single fitting. Common on high-output performance builds where a large frame turbocharger with a 4 inch compressor outlet connects into a standard 3 inch intercooler pipe run at a direction change point.

• Size Context: The 101mm to 76mm reduction is a large 25mm step down across a 90 degree turn. This is one of the more significant reducing combinations in the Takashi range and is used specifically on builds where a large turbo outlet feeds into a 3 inch downstream system. Both 4 inch and 3 inch pipe sizes are common in Australian performance builds, making this a practically useful elbow for engine swap and large turbo upgrade projects.

• Temperature and Pressure Rating: Rated from -48 degrees C to 260 degrees C with a working pressure of 275 PSI. Built to handle the extreme heat and sustained boost pressure demands of high-output turbo systems without deforming, cracking or collapsing under load.

• Construction Note: 5mm wall thickness with multi-ply silicone reinforcement throughout. Black exterior with no logo for a clean engine bay finish. The blue interior liner is standard Takashi construction and is not a defect.

• Fitment Note: The inlet end connects to pipes with an outside diameter of approximately 101mm and the outlet end connects to pipes with an outside diameter of approximately 76mm. The 25mm difference between the two ends is significant. Measure both connection points on your actual piping carefully before ordering to confirm this is the correct reducing combination for your setup.

• What to Pair With It: Use with a 101mm T-bolt clamp on the inlet end and a 76mm T-bolt clamp on the outlet end. At these diameters, T-bolt clamps are essential. Worm-drive clamps are not suitable for connections at 101mm under boost pressure.

• Practical Buyer Tip: This elbow is a practical solution on engine swap builds where a large aftermarket turbo is being run on an engine that originally used 3 inch intercooler piping. Rather than upsizing the entire downstream pipe system to 4 inch, this single reducing elbow allows the turbo outlet to transition into the existing 3 inch pipe run neatly at the first direction change point, keeping the build cost and complexity down without creating an unnecessary restriction further downstream.
