Nice car.I noticed that you put together h & r springs with B6 shocks. Is not better to use B8 to them? Just curious.

And back together... Not the cheap heat tape, but after warming it exploded to fire
Luckily I had the fire extinguisher in my trunk and nothing serious happened.
Seller told that he had never problems with that
Now I have driven a lot and seems that it won't burn any more

Nice work here. Are you satisfied with bilstein shocks?

Yes, super good

Hi Tomas,

Thanks for your time in answering my query so perfectly.

I now remember the thread looking at your link, but didn't note the name of AnLe at the time.

Thanks again, appreciated.

I have been using a "gasket" cut out from 1mm stainless sheet. If the flanges are 100% flat then there would not be any need for a gasket.

With what you cut out? cnc?
Sadly the problem was on the bend flanges. At the beginning flanges were flat, but there was more than 1 mm bend... And flames burned gasket out and also turboblanket does not hold flames and has started to burn out
Now it is all flat and I hope it stays flat It's a little funny not to put any gaskets and I already have those, so this time I'll go with gaskets
One guy told that he had cast iron em and even that bend a little, so the bolt broke in to the engine Luckily my bolts are fine


And engine and gearbox mounts arrived also!

And it happened agan



This time I removed the exhaust manifold..
Both flanges were bend...
I think stainless manifold is crap...
But maybe it just bends at the beginning and later does not bend so much..
Weird, lots of people drive with stainless and I haven't heard about a problem like that.



There were not very smooth welding, so I grind it a little, now it seems to be much better.

Good work man!!!!

Some pictures of new vacuum lines.





Also new fuel pressure regulator..

[maiks]

Today I made pressure test.
Results were bad, it leaks everywhere.. 2 months ago it was all fine.
Bypass valve leaked, fuel pressure regulator leaked, wastegate leaked (rubber line was burned), also intake to ecu leaked...
Tomorrow I'll change all vacuum lines... old rubber is hard and clamp tightening won't help.
