PS inter cooler, Which couplings?

when I install my PS IC, I will need to buy 3" couplings.

Do I need to buy the "hump" style, the ones with the wire rings, or will the straight ones work?

Does it matter?

You'll actually need 3.25"-3" reducers as the PS necks measure 3.25". The hump style hoses are typically used when the i/c tubes will be flexing at the joint often and also allow for a little movement for minor adjustments if necessary. So hump hose or straight hose is your choice.

No problem. Where in So Cal are you located? I'm in Cypress between Los Alamitos and Buena Park.
