just ringing up metal manufacturers for piping wwork, WTF piping is CHEAP!

$18/mtr for 3 inch diametre 1.6mm wall thickness 304 grade stainless

and for the bends in 316 grade stainless:

90 degree bend $33.15 (Mandrel)

180 degree bend $64.40 (Mandrel)

So bout $100 all up for the steel, dunno how much the silicon joiners be, but definatly not $700 dollars worth!!!!

hmmm

interesting, I think that we need to be buying two lengths of everything. Should have thought of your hardware connections.

OH OH OH All of a sudden you're freindly with me eh, meh I'm over it, Marc wants some new piping too and he's got dodgy stuff but it all fits so prolly going to model mine off his and buy 2, meh was thinking about a group buy, but too much effort me thinks.

Also this is all going back to the stock piping, so dunno if that is what you are after Nex?

haha can't take pics, no camera here at work :)

I wish it was ready for Monday...I'll have to get a week off work to do the car.

I need to get some pipe too, my intercooler is too ricey sitting there but not connected.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
