  4. LCR Silicone TIP Fitting guide? And which clamp do I need?

    Hi, I’ve just ordered a silicone tip and was wondering if there is a fitting guide to help me install it. It looks like a straight forward swap but reading past threads some find it simple, and some have a bit of struggle including shredding hands, etc. Since I’ve not done this before, I...

    Hi all I managed to get my new Forge TIP on yesterday and relocation kit, and what a fight, there is absolutely NO space because of the brakecylinder on a LHD! So had to take bottom jubilee clip from the left side. [:@] General observersions, forge TIP is harder and the overall feels is...

    Is my TIP loose?

    Hi all. I was having a fiddling with the car, searching for a boost leak and I think I might have found it. I put my hand down the underside of the TIP (THS) until I could feel where it connected to the turbo, it feels like the TIP is on at an angle with one side sitting snug and the other...

    Forge T.I.P

    Hey Guys, I'm sorry for the newbie style post but what what advantage/benefits would I have if I was to fit a Forge T.I.P? I've only had my LCR for about 3 weeks and I've never had a turbo'd car before so this is all new to me. I'm mostly concentrating on cosmetic mods at the moment...

  13. little tip for throttle body cleaning!

    Please excuse me if it has been posted before, did a search and it hasn't come up! Instead of removing the TB to clean it, turn the ignition on and get a friend to press the accelerator, it opens up and you can gently clean it with a suitable brush and carb cleaner!

    Forge TIP problems?

    I fitted my Forge TIP to my LC (AUQ) today and can honestly say that in 7 years of working on cars it is the most awkward thing I have ever fitted, but more surprisingly to me was what appears to be a very poor effort at locating the ports in a fashion resembling the old one. It was damn...

    TIP effect on DV noise?

    Hi all Just out of interest, if i got a Forge TIP, would my DV be louder or is it just merely a more rigid alternative to the OEM TIP?
