Don't waste your time mick, all you'll be doing is increasing the length of pipe for no noticeable reduction in intake temps.

The air is moving too quickly to pick up much radiant heat off the rocker covers as mentioned above.

As for your leak; if you have any unreinforced rubber joiners then get rid of them. They stretch and allow the air to squeeze out under the hose clamp at high pressure.

I have replaced all the hoses with triple ply reinforced silicone hoses Dave and ive got new hose clamps recommended by yavus they are only bout 8mm wide so they should bite down good on the silicone hoses and since ive replaced the wafer thin alloy pipework with stainless i can nip up the hose clamps that lil bit tighter without crushing the pipe

Haha yeah thats them mate im sure that there is better but they should do the job tho

haha they have gotten you onto the wurth clamps.. I dont mind them but wouldn't call them the 'ducks guts' as they do

SHHHHHWIING! Hahaha thanks Jase just gotta get a longer piece of silicone hose for the boost controller line and put it all back together properly and its zoom zoom time :merli:

lol nice pin, sexy as always :action-smiley-069:

Unreal job on the pipes, looks fantastic! You should make up some rb25 3" metal intake pipes with all the factory connections that bolts up to the factory airbox! Plenty of people like me will buy one. :)

Plenty of people like me can make one. :)

Thanks Harey im planning on making few kits up to sell just need a standard box so i can fab up some pipes

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.
