Message	to the 2.5" piping. The coupler is about 4" in length. There are no hose-bead rolls on the ends of the pipes, however, I used a tack-bead on them to prevent them from popping loose. There are seven small weld-beads at the ends of the pipes. The images of all of the pipes was before I had added these beads. The only thing that blew loose on the dyno was the HKS blow-off valve, and that was because the hose-clamp wasn't tightened down. The pipe I used for the blow-off valves had a hose-bead rolled into the end of it. None of Dee's t-bolt clamps were used - we only used standard, spiral tension hoseclamps.
