Nice bends. Its really important to cut straight for the TIG welds i think. When do you start on the exhaurst? Looking forward to see your work.

**Thuppu** · 11 April 2012, 19:02

Yes, you'r right, it is inportant. Or lets say, it's more simpple to weld. I'll start on it when I get the engine in place, hopefully next week.

The flex is actually a copper pipe with rubber coating., and a flex torch is alot nicer to work with!

Is this an Twinscroll- Housing? The manifold too?

**Thuppu** · 14 April 2012, 20:49

Yes, a T3 twinscroll housing, but not a twinscroll manifold because there is 5 runners.

Hello
can you tell me what was the reason for the rods bearing damage?
Oilpump?

**Thuppu** · 18 April 2012, 13:45

Can't say for sure. Oil pump is one possibility.

**Jim_Coupe** · 18 April 2012, 13:51

Really nice project

**Prosac** · 19 April 2012, 01:33

Ok. Was the oilpump a new one OEM from VAG?

**Thuppu** · 19 April 2012, 03:14

Now I have a new OEM one. It will be interesting to see how different the pressure will be compared to the old setup.

**Melber** · 19 April 2012, 09:37

You would like to put custom pump gear, or decided not?

**Thuppu** · 19 April 2012, 10:50

Yes, I will use the custom Cr-mo gear.
