The invention is in a transfer pipe for passing engine exhaust gas from an engine exhaust manifold to a turbine inlet side of an exhaust gas driven turbine air compressor. The transfer pipe is formed from a material, such as steel, that is appropriate for use in transferring hot engine exhaust gas and provides for mounting on one end across the turbine inlet The opposite transfer pipe end is arranged for fitting into an open collar end of an exhaust gas conduit that receives exhaust gas from the engine exhaust manifold, and includes a circumferential arcuate section for providing a metal to metal seal with the collar interior wall while allowing the transfer pipe to be tilted relative to the collar interior wall without breaking the seal. The transfer pipe provides a uniform cross sectional area along its length and is widened through a uniform arc at bends to maintain that uniform cross section along the entire pipe length, minimizing creation of turbulence in the gas flow as would occur at a point where the pipe is narrowed and then expands.

A uniform flow exhaust gas transfer pipe comprising, a pipe that is open longitudinally and is formed of a suitable material for transferring hot engine exhaust gas, said pipe including coupling means on each pipe end for coupling, respectively, to a coupling of an inlet side of a turbine housing of an exhaust gas driven turbine air compressor and to an exhaust gas conduct that receives exhaust gas from an engine exhaust manifold, with said coupling means for joining said pipe end to said exhaust gas conduit consisting of a collar formed around an exhaust opening in said exhaust gas conduit, said collar for receiving an end of said pipe fitted therein, and includes a stepped section within said collar for blocking further passage of said pipe end which said pipe end is arranged to fit closely within said collar so as to provide a metal to metal seal between an arcuate circumferential section of said pipe end and said collar interior wall; and said pipe is bent at least once through a uniform arc to contour to the engine configuration, with at said bend, said pipe is formed to maintain said pipe cross sectional area, such that said pipe has a constant cross sectional area along its entire length.
