Thanks for the input guys, if its aluminum I can still get brazing rods and put a lip on. I will have to measure up the outer diameter of the runners and see if there are any silicone sizes suitable as if its an off size then it may well be more hassle than its worth.
But I never thought about...
Sorry if this is in the wrong section.
But I have been looking at getting the standard inlets to face the other way with the TB on a AGU (basically TB from drivers side to passenger side). You guys helped me out in another post alot! By suggesting a sharan inlet manifold a long with other...
Heard if you are making pipework with loads of silicone joints and corners pieces it causes a resistance in the pipework, not sure how true this is. I understand more silicone means more places for boost leaks though.
Regarding ply, what would be recommended on the manifolds and regarding using...
Other thing it may be, which I have seen from my experience is, between the door and wing (by the hinge) there is a rubber parts with a hole on it that will drape one way. This is a drainage route for water from the roof to come off. Some people run a cable through and block it, others turn it...
Anyone have any information on how to the inlet manifold with silicone as I am assuming this is the easiest/cheapest option. Also how would it effect performance as I heard to much silicone can reduce performance?
With the DV you could always relocate it to the front using the forge kit, that way you will not need to bring the pipework up from the turbo and back down.
Also any more info on how to do the silicone idea as that seems very tempting, but I don't see how the silicone would hold unless there is...
That silicone idea seems to interest me strongly, how would you make sure the silicone joints hold as usually you would need a lip on it otherwise the boost would pop it off/out?
Sounds good, mines more of a budget build. Well budget is not the correct word as its still a fair bob, but not as crazy as some of the builds which I do love, just not got that amount of cash.
Thanks for the advice. Need to see how big the inlet is on a k04 turbo, any idea on that?
Sorry to hear mate, I've only had problems with awesome in some departments and I am not happy how they mis-informed information too forum users on another forum just to try and sell a product when others where giving a cheaper and better solution.
However the only good thing I have seen them...
