going to buy a pillar mount for it soon but dont know where to get one from, if anybody knows?

I've just ordered one from Banshee Motorsport for my Mk4 Ibiza. I've gone for the same gauge as you mate! Got mine from Halfords too for £19.99. The only difference mine is PSI not BAR. They were both in the shop but I personally prefer the look of the PSI to BAR - totally personal choice though!

Just watching for a few bits to arrive and it'll all be fitted then! :D

May have made an embarrassing mistake while ordering the hosetail to screw into the IC pipe..... :redface:

Just ordered a new one and waiting for delivery AGAIN now. :(

where's the link then Ibiza? If you couldn't find it chances are other people will have the same problem!

I got the right one now....I may have got hose size of 1/4 before..... :rolleyes:

You need this bad boy

Take off the plastic intercooler pipe on the left of the engine bay

drill a 12-13mm hole, wrap some PFTE tape around the thread, and screw it in, not too tight, I used a spanner and did it just so it got some decent bite but I didnt have to use much force on the spanner

Yeh - don't want to crack the IC piping. I tend to be a bit keen with a spanner too.....just waiting for a few more goodies before I fit it.
