so what do you gain from fitting a new TIP?

More air = more power - (less turbo lag)

 

[b_wain]

why would you get more air?

Oh well, might as well just polish the old thing up

why would you get more air?

Bigger pipe with a bigger internal diametre and much less restrictive flow

 

[b_wain]

so do you think you would notice the diference? power and any change in tone?

 

[benjiwales]

Deffinatley notice the sound difference, as for the change in power, well its more about the turbo coming in quicker, it's difficult for me to say as the day after I fitted mine I had the car remapped

main difference is the pipe replaces the metal restrictive turbo tip which goes onto the turbo

the forge tip effectively stays the same diameter from the induction kit all the way to the turbo, instead of a bottle neck type effect which is what the standard setup offers

main advantages are quicker spool up, but allowing the peak power to be held for slightly longer when mapped due to increased air flow

I have it on mine, but to be honest you wont notice a massive amount of difference in the cars standard form, it comes more into play when the car has been remapped as of course the boost is vastly increased

will wait till i get it mapped then, cheers for all your advice lads

edit my last comments, through some logging I have been told of, the increased air flow lower down the rev range with the tip fitted is alot higher than over standard

my bad, it does make a significant difference on a standard car
