[James.Judd.1]

Looking good mate

Hoses and clips in the pipe kit are shite aint they lol mine are still sat unopened in the packets in the shed

Fitting should be easy as you have the 2 diagonal bars going across the front

Previous owner of mine obviously grinded them off to fit the old intercooler lol

Prepare for bumper trimmage next i think !

Haha yeah, got my forge goodies hopefully coming tomorrow, and unfortunately I have to cut out the diagonal bars to get it to fit.. im going to weld up a bracket off the top of the beam that the bonnet catch sits on and also secure it from underneth too as it weighs a tonne!
But yes the dremel is waiting to be let loost on the bumper haha

I hope so! I havent a clue what it will make.. People get 280bhp without the 3" tip, highflow mani and WMI.. who knows.

Anything around there I will be happy though!

Cheers mate

I havent fitted it yet but I have mocked it up and it deffinately will fit. I havent got an aircon rad though which frees up alot of space.

I got this pipework kit but only for the ally pipes (which also need bead rolling).. silicon and hose clips have been binned as they are crap. I am using all forge silicon and hose clips which I will post a pic up in a minute..

Nice pile of parts there

Did you not think about getting some of the Mikalor T-bolt clamps instead for the pipework?

 

[chaazza]

Do you reckon you could put a list up on what silicone joiners/bends you have had to oreder to do this also im still confused how to route the map sensor pipe

Speaking to alex after fitting joehirths pipes its a nightmare to get the tbolts to seal properly..

Ill sort you out a list when iv fitted it all as I am not 100% yet just ordered what I think I will need

They do eventually seal, but they had to get so tight they distorted the pipework.

Stainless HCS hose clips work much better.

You should top mount the gear shifter.

I think I have a blank for the hole the aircon pipes leave.

I did see yours and it looked sweet, how do I do that though? make/buy a box to raise it up?

Im not too sure If I actually need to move the block going through the firewall actually mate, I worked it out and it can be done with them in place and just modifying the abs bracket.

 

[IbizaAlex]

All you need to do it remove it from underneath and mount it on top. Then drill two holes in the bulkhead for the linkage to go through. Easy

The blank goes in place of where the aircon pipes went through the bulkhead. Makes it look really neate.

Rocking the LEGO dustcaps

Shift box out for top mounting

What I found ratteling around inside the shfitbox lol

Rubber grommets out to lower the bracket so it doesnt foul on my 3" tip

Contemplating on doing the DIY shortshift gearbox end..
