and forge 63mm map sensor tube ~£25 delivered

Where did you get a Forge MAP sensor tube for £25 delivered? I bought one last week and with 10% it was still £36

i used the old one. didnt need a new one just made old one fit.

Ive just been looking then, instead of messing about with silicon hoses im going to get stainless steel pipe work, 45degree and a 90 and get them welded together so its tidyer

 

[Markyboyt]

one thing thats worth bearing in mind is that there will be more flex/vibration damping with silicone hoses opposed to solid metal pipes. If the pipes are linked between the engine and the body the flex between the 2 could cause the pipes to fracture. Obviously this would depend on how you lay it out and where the pipes are secured.

 

[Shaunyboy]

I wont just break the welder out and fire awy then regret it afterwards, il mock a few ideas up first, back to the ebay kit i shown, somthing similar to that. Or get a local engineer to mandrel bend me some pipes.

2.5 inch or 63 mm. the forge map pipe isnt needed but preferd i think. i will be using a forge map pipe. hopefully have the intercooler this week and fit on saturday.

Depends if you have a LC or a LCR you'll need it on a LC as old one mounts to the old intercooler.
