Default HELP!!!!!...fooking swedish plenum and GT35...

Yeah right does the GT35 fit straight on Fooking knightmare.....but it will be sorted...this is the immediate issue can anyone supply a made boost hose????....Its 2wd throttle body (bored out with bigger butterfly ) to a now cut down RS500 size intercooler!


Its not as it looks just a straight hose!!!...The intercooler is lower and to the near side!

There is a firm round here that will make you a custom silicone hose if you are stuck. PM RSGus for their details.

i had a couple of pipes made up in steel by a local exhaust manufaturer, they only charged Ł20 a pipe, try powerflow or summit as they will knock you a bit of pipe out and they can bend it to whatever shape, plus you can use your own silicone pipes to fit either end and then you can weld a bit for your dump valve, actually could lee at fusion not do it for ya

Gareth...didnt think it was a problem as rainbird just said what SECS did at the time ..You can see they never fit anything like this themselves!

I got one idea tommorrow as we do flexable ducting that may work...

Just found a problem phil, reducer elbow only come in 90 Degree bends.

So you may have a problem, doing both reducing and 45 degrees in the same short space.

Maybe someone has found a solution ?

If you're talking about what I think you are, that stuff doesn't take any pressure....
