Fitting 80mm tip & maf question

[unclebunt]

hi I'm getting an 80mm tip on Sunday and was just wondering can it fit directly to original air box and will I need a new maf sensor? Cheers

 

[badger5]

what make?

 

[unclebunt]

Doesn't state, just says it's a hard pipe dude I can't afford a badger5 so had to settle for this one until future

 

[unclebunt]

If anyone has a b5 tip they wanna sell message me

The maf measures 80mm outside diameter, so depends on the size of the pipe you've ordered, if it's a hard pipe it will probably come with a silicone coupler hose with 80mm internal diameter which you will connect to the maf and the new pipe

 

[badger5]

pictures will confirm what it is you have bought or got

Picked it up today used but a bargain!! Will do until I can get a b5 gotta get the 80mm maf I think? And gonna get a cone filter too, going in next week to have top mount done, kit fitted, brakes done and clean

Also my puppy couldn't help but have a notice

What car do you have? The maf as standard on an s3 is 80mm not sure about other models

Did you get a metal billet with it that attaches to the turbo? Like the badger 5 v2.2, otherwise it won't fit as the turbo inlet is smaller than 80mm more like 50mm but your pipe looks 80mm from top to bottom

Cute dog with the pink ball, all you need is a handbag for it haha

Then there is a significant piece of the puzzle missing. This has been miss sold to you

Missing the billet adaptor (if thats how it was used before) or a reducing silicone elbow... Compressor inlet isnt that big for sure.

 

[unclebunt]

So I can't use it?

 

[unclebunt]

Picture of it from other side if that's any good?

 

[Ant_S3]

Yes you have the billet it's the metal piece on the other end, it will fit straight on

 

[unclebunt]

Thank god for that gonna try and get a cone filter now

 

[Ant_S3]

If you doing it on the cheap the s2000 filter fits as its 80mm seen a few people on here doing it but personally I reckon they look a bit ugly but can't complain for £20

 

[superkarl]

Phewww

 

[unclebunt]

Ordered a s2000 for now was £18 free p&p off eBay black pipes and red filter same colour as tip! Thought they only did the horrible green so I'm happy hope I don't get that horrible dv noise people mention

Now you've got that sorted, what breed of pup is that? Cute ******.

 

[unclebunt]

Pomeranian x chihuahua

 

[s3mad_dude]

Is the pipe pictured a Badger5 V1?

 

[unclebunt]

Log pro says on side does fitting the tip and cone actually help with any performance or just for noise? Either way was time for a change

 

[badger5]

looks like my v1, but i did'nt ever use those hoses, but did sell a few loose alloy bits..
