melting intercooler couplings

[StealthFighter1]

my manifold is too close to the outlet / charge pipe on the turbo and it melts the silicone couplings...any ideas how to prevent or remedy this?

Use better silicone couplers....I think the spectre ones are shit....at least that's what I have heard.....

i know that, this was a fast fix after 3 very nice quality silicone couplers bit the dust.

get a proper elbow and have it welded
