Need some help boys..

[Azman]

Right guys.

I need to order some silicone connectors today so I get them intime for the alloy pipe making, but like an idiot the wife has just run off with the car without me measuring then for the ID of the pipes.

In my mind I have the -

The maf at 3"
The turbo inlet at 2.5"
The turbo outlet at 2.5"
The intercooler inlet at 2.5"
the intercooler outlet at 2.5"
the engine inlet (end of the pipe) at 2.5"
The breather pipe at 25mm
The Recirc pipes at 25mm


Can anyone confirm this so I can get the stuff ordered.

Cheers
Aaron

Do you mean silicone hoses?

If you do, there is a recognised kit that can be purchased via Paul (S2_Central).

Cheers,

Yep I Know that but am having some alloy hoses made so I can move bits around and get a bit of support and cable runs in there nice and easy, just to create a bit more room so I can get a nice heat shield and cold air flow in there. So I need to make sure that I order the correct ID hose connectors as the guy who is making the alloy pipes has 60 and 63mm ID and also 76mm ID for coming off the MAF.

It is just the bit going into the turbo and coming out of the turbo that I need the ID sizes for (also going out of the intercooler and into the metal top pipe that runs down the engine). I think they are 63mm but would like confirmation before I buy some silicone connectors.

Cheers

If your REALLY stuck i can dig out all the parts in my garage and measure them?

[Azman]

Right. I have just measured the top metal pipe to get an Idea. The external of the pipe is 60mm but it is 63mm if you include the beading hump!!!!

What should I order the 60 or 63mm?????????

[Azman]

@ Mac - Cheers for the offer matey

[Azman]

Well the plunge has been taken - 63mm ordered on advice from demon tweeks so they had better be right or I will blow my nut at them!!!!

Just need some decent clamps now. What do people think to standard Juby clips. They up to the job or should I get something a bit stronger like Mikalor???

Azman... you are crazy letting ur wife drive the car. VERY crazy

[Azman]

Got it back now. Last time she had it a slight scuff managed to appear on the front wheel!!!!!!!!!!!! But I needed the lugging space of the PT.

[Azman]

Right all my hoses have arrived but I have just seen something about a porsche K24 turbo. It had 50mm inlet and outlet. The outlet side doesn't bother me as that will be the last to be done and not next week but the inlet does. Can anyone confirm this for me fairly urgently so I can order a reducer on Monday.

Cheers

P.S. 63mm goes on a bit loose but when clamped up fits quite nicley with a little bit of articulation in the center so no bending or breaking of parts to be expected

[martinjs]

I think the turbo inlet is 52mm or there abouts Aaron.

[Azman]

Cheers matey. Looks like I am going to have to order another reducer. bummer.
At least the other hose will fit the project car..
