I'm curious if this type of downpipe setup can be mated to a standard S3 exhaust, or would I be wasting my time?
Possibly something to investigate on lupo.. and make its outlet 3.5" into its 3" system when it goes full fat k04 hybrid shortly..
I didn't include the joining pipe between the two rear boxes as thats already been done (plus as I helped make it I also know where the joins 'should' be... although I could have missed a couple... )
I am sticking to 14...
<tuffty/>
The fag strip? surely get it on the track?
Nah Stacey can't do corners very well
I believe Bill has been welding over the past day or so as the weekend was taken up with mapping cars and fixing other stuff...
I know the next things on the list are coolant lines and the wastegate pipe work...
There will no doubt be an proper update from Bill when he has five mins
<tuffty/>
5minutes? Probably took him 20 to type out the thread at the top of the section about mapping
Tial gate to attack next and oil drain and lines.. (going to be tricky as **** the oil drain!!)
Undo the bolt, watch it drain, eat some indian while its draining, do bolt up and fill?
or am I missing something?............I know, the exhaust is in the way?
lool.. yea kinda missing something dude.
Oil Drain line Stacey has asked me to do.. and its going to be a right pia as its access to sump from where it is, and the many tubes, tial wastegates, and downpipe obstructing the path are going to make it hell to come up with something.
oil drain I can manage. Its the hex thing on the bottom of the sump I think.. It might be the dingle fulrum tho.. Hmmm I best be carefull.
bill do you sell those egt bosses??
they're m10 x 1.0 aren't they??
i need one. or tap my manifold, not sure
yeh oem egt probe. dont remember it needing a counter bore in the turbo hotside, looked to me as thought the probe just sits flat on its nut. Il have to have a look this weekend. Ive 2 options, manifold or downpipe, but if you do the bosses i may be in touch about one
thanks

double edit: AH i see! against that seat that moves up/down the probe.
Looks lovely bill.....can't wait for it to turn over and know "its alive"
didnt doubt you for a second bill :thumbsup:I do kinda know what I am describing here Karl
Its not a collar which slides up and down. Its fixed to the probe and must sit against a bottom counterbore to be clamped tight and sealed
£15+postage btw and in stock
there's a few steps between here and there Stacey.
Hoping the build and first startup is problem and leak free.
times going to be incredibly tight to complete for inters as is.
Still working towards it.
getting there slowly..
its not leak free already btw.. your PAS drips
going home knackered........
more tomorrow
Looks sexual and sits nice and tight to the floor pan
