to get rid of the last weak point in my hosing, i have found the above which is custom made and houses the MAP sensor found in the passenger wheel arch on the 1.8T. Ideal then i can get rid of the plastic IC pipework.

I will be ordering a few if anybody wishes to make their own IC pipework, might be handy :)

Forge also do something. Is that a weld-on one? From the picture I'd guess it was Steel?

on the original the tip or sensor is inline of the airflow but on my new pipe its inset up the pipe , will this affect the way it works?

mine is recessed on the standard pipework, so long as the tip gets air, it will be fine.

how much and what sizes are the forge ones? :D

u can have steel or alloy
