[Deleted member 39269]

Right then folks, i have a ko3 fitted to my cupra with a leon charge pipe

bassically i want to away with that charge pipe and make my own. all i want to no is what size is the outlet on the ko3 (mm) so i no what size of reducer i need

ok mate, i had a look through that thread earlier and i went and measured mine and it looked like 55mm so i thought i would double check

can anyone confirm it is 60mm i need? and a 60-51 reducer

all i want to no is that is the external diameter of the lcr at the front of the car?

 

[cuprachrissy]

perhaps ask in the leon section mate?

iirc the lcr charge pipe is 60mm...

i would just use 60mm for the charge pipe makes it easyer for the fmic aswell no big bottlenecks...

the top of turbo is 51mm from what ive read...

So go 60mm pipes then? my alloy pipe comes up from the fmic to a black 45 degree bend then onto the charge pipe

I was guna chuck the lcr pipe, and replace it with various silicone and alloy pipes and just need to no the size of the charge pipe cause i dont have a vernier caliper to hand

60mm should be fine some have used 63mm but imo its not going to make much difference...
