In addition to optical tuning, many tuning enthusiasts also take part performance improvements in front. That goes both electronically by example Chiptuning as well as mechanically, among other things, by retrofitting stronger ones Turbochargers or Chimneys. At best, for a particularly effective result, one does all things in combination. Whether electronic or mechanical, new ones are often created silicone reducers installed. For what? This is explained below!
silicone reducers
Anyone looking for silicone reducers on the Internet will quickly find what they are looking for. They are available from different manufacturers and in different sizes. Your task is not particularly complex. Silicone reducers connect two hoses or a hose with a connector, each with a different diameter, suitably connected. The reduction made of durable material creates the connection between the two dissimilar parts. Hence the name Reduzierung; a larger hose diameter is reduced to the appropriate size. Silicone reducers not only come in different sizes. They are also available straight or in different angles and in different colors.
What do silicone reducers bring?
The main purpose of silicone reducers is to connect two hose ends of different sizes. However, there are significant differences. Due to the enormous air pressure, depending on the installation position, which can sometimes occur in the hoses under full load, the connections are exposed to considerable forces. Such connectors of hoses are basically always the weakest point and therefore particularly plagued by defects. This increases, for example, when installing a larger turbocharger. If, for example, the OEM turbocharger is upgraded, its mounting often changes. In this case, the hose for the intake may no longer fit on it. Here, either a completely new and special matching intake is often used, or a transition of the components is made possible by means of a reduction piece. In order for the silicone reducer to withstand the forces, however, it must be of a special quality.
Manufacturers of silicone reducers therefore ensure that the silicone reducers have a particularly high pressure resistance and heat resistance and are more durable than corresponding series components. silicone reducers but are also used as standard, but are then usually not designed for higher loads through tuning. Therefore, in the event of an increase in performance, it is always advisable to exchange it for higher-quality silicone reducers. Manufacturers achieve higher quality by using special silicone, which can be multi-layered and fabric-reinforced. This means that the parts do not become porous as quickly as standard silicone reducers. Last but not least, there are retrofittable silicone reducers in various different colors, so that the engine compartment is also visually more attractive.
We hope that you have received our information report on the topic / term silicone reducers (Other designations/keywords are: Turbo inlet adapter, silicone sleeve, silicone reduction, reduction piece, turbocharger adapter, turbo reduction, turbocharger adapter, turbo reduction, reducer, adapter tube) from the Autotuning category. Our goal is to create the largest German-speaking tuning lexicon (Tuning Wikipedia) and to explain tuning technical terms from A to Z easily and understandably. We are therefore expanding this lexicon almost daily and you can see how far we have already come HERE see. And soon the next one will be Tuning scene concept illuminated by us. There's a theme that not can be found in our Wikipedia? Then send us an email at kontakt@tuningblog.eu and gives us the term. We will write a suitable article as soon as possible. PS. By the way, you will be informed about new topics if you have ours Feed subscriber.
Below are a few examples from our tuning lexicon:
But of course tuningblog has countless other articles on the subject of cars & car tuning in stock. Do you want to see them all? Just click HERE and look around. We would also like to provide you with news aside from the tuning. In our category Tips, products, information & Co we pick up contributions from car or accessory manufacturers. And also our category Test sites, laws, offenses, information has almost daily new information for you. Here are a few topics from our tuning wiki:
"Tuningblog.eu" - we keep you up to date on the subject of car tuning and car styling with our tuning magazine and we present you the latest tuned vehicles from all over the world every day. It's best to subscribe to ours Feed and will automatically be informed as soon as there is something new about this post, and of course also to all other contributions.
