[flashbsd]

nice one, what size/cost were the coolant ones from the bottle? and the fuel lines to the FPR?

 

[PhilW]

Thanks for the comments!

The elbow is...70mm bore 45 degree elbow E45-70 part no. from samco. Its helped a lot of with the actual location of the dynatwist since i fitted the golf tip.


8mm ID for the coolant and the fpr is the same as the vac hoses, 3 or 4mm ID. I used 3mm.


I cant really give away prices coz i know a few people who work for samco. But please dont ask me to get you any coz i cant, i have tired!!! lol.

 

[h17och]

Thast y i want one, my dynatwist isnt in a great place since fitting the TIP!

cheers phill, your a star

The one i've blanked off is a 22mm pipe. Its a bit tight tho, if i was doin it again i would use 25mm. Same as the rest of the DV relocation kit.



I've made the photos bigger so hit F5 if you wanna see them better.


I'm also goin to replace a lot more coolant hoses when i get the next order through, keep you posted on that. I got a load of spare 19mm hose, which i'm using to replace the breather that normally fits onto the original airbox, stupid plastic corrugated tube thing. That should look good coz then you can see the shiny breather on the end.

I dont think you can coz of the temp of the coolant, maybe find out what temps the vac hose can hold.

Polish parts next yep, inlet manifold, strut brace and possibly the whole rocker cover and some more caps etc...

 

[Olly20VT]

so did you no use vac hose for the water headertank? did you use a straight 8mm bore pipe?

 

[PhilW]

I didnt use the vac pipe, i got the straight 8mm hose.

 

[Daz_gibbo]

Looking good Phil. Knowing peeps from Samco, bet that saved you a packet!

 

[Undezcupra]

Looks ace mate, How much has it cost you (approx) to get all the samco's?

 

[dj_bigfella]

looks cool mate! like a maze! did you use audi tt parts for the filler cap and anti freeze bottle?

 

[Forbez]

Phil you couldn't claim that you've mislaid your TIP could you??

Looking wicked Phil, im slowly working towards the same! (Very Slowly!!!)

 

[ibizacupra]

Whats the small bore blue pipe running from FPR to washer bottle and then up... just hanging there. (boost gauge?)

 

[h17och]

Looks like boost guage!! should have jumped into the pipe from inlet mani to brake servo(where the green blank off if in the pic) (bottom left)
