Hi i remember seeing not to long ago a custom stainless steel pipe that went from the afm to the turbo that was ment to reduce restriction and i just wanted to know what it is called and where i can get one? Also do people notice a difference? Thanx

Not unless you have a high kilowatt application thats pulling 230kw++ and the only reason you'd notice a difference is because at these power levels the standard rubberised induction pipes can suck themselves closed and severly bottleneck airflow. so yeh, unless yours is sucking itself closed you'll notice no difference

Only if ur using a std airbox. If your gonna cut and paste, cut and paste the whole story.

If your using a pod, you wount have any issues with the std rubber intake. But it is a bit ghey so if u feel like making t better good on u.

High kilowatt 230kw :):):(:)

Thats funny tell me another one

Mate if you want one have a look in the For Sale - Business Traders section as there is a place that sells them.

that pipe is not suitable for stock air boxes. only pods. I asked him. prob. too long or maybe wrong angle.

I'm quite sure i'm not cut/pasting anything retard :devil:

What i'm saying is there's no point getting one of these, unless your running decent power or want to dose :P

Yeh but he wants one because he's heard it reduces restriction, he also wants to know if anyone notices differences, so i'm assuming he's looking at it from a performance aspect

anyways wtf are ppl doing awake at 2am on a sunday night

How do you know for certain it doesn't reduce restiction. He may be right.

    • The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!
    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
