THS hoses / Gauges fitted

[Phillc]

At least you got it on sort of, have you seen the pipe forge do to replace the plastic one, only about £25dont know if it would help.

i have but that set up ive read will only fit if you have a front mount.

yes glad its fitted.

Just a update on the hoses, the car definitely pulls better and the acceleration is better the boost has gone up, it peaked at 10psi then dropped to 7-8 before but now it peaks at 12 and holds 10 right through the gears, really impressed,is most of this is from the tip or a combination of the tip and intercooler hoses (they are bigger so hold more air)

looking forward to taking mine out tommorrow,

I will be interested to hear what you think, it just feels smoother and the power more instant.
Did you sort your pipe out.

 

[Nev_LCR]

ye it seems a better fit but not worried for now as i think my front mount will be orded next week and a map sensor pipe from forge.

ah you decided to go for the forge pipe then i dont think its a bad price tbh i may do the same, i am wanting to do the front mount some time this year, which intercooler did you go for? I'v got my MOT tomorrow so need to keep my fingers crossed.

im still not 100% on which one, im trying to find if its close sizes to the forge but prob this one seems fine to me, was going for the larger one but dont want to have to shoe horn it in.

Looks good, and not a bad price.

 

[Nev_LCR]

ive just had a measure uo and it looks spot on to the size of the forge one, so im happy with that, with a pipe set it works out £139, bargin,

 

[Phillc]

Is it the universal fitting kit from ebay?

 

[Nev_LCR]

yes mate, from the same seller,
