Tip's

[Tony 156]

im confused

the neuspeed turbo intake pipe and the forge Tip are completly different and have nothing to do with each other.

am i correct in saying this?

also is it worth changing both?

cheers.

Tony.

Nope they are the same, the forge piece replaces the whole setup, the neuspeed utilises the top section of the standard setup, and replaces the bottom.

 

[Tony 156]

ah ha, got you now.

so either, 155ish for the complete forge one, or 175ish for the neuspeed part replacement.

dont have to be clever to figure this one out.


cheers for that!

 

[Forbez]

Heres a forge vs standard one, the neuspeed replaces the metal section on the standard one.

 

[Forbez]

Is that £155 fitted for the forge one?

 

[JIMYU]

mine was £99...may have been a special offer tho

Simon L pointed out that the OEM TIP (damn acronyms ) was subject to collapsing under high load... that I'm guessing would obviously be the rubber section, so the neuspeed TIP wouldn't solve this problem?

 

[JIMYU]

True. I can't see any advantage in the neuspeed over forge other than it it keeps the OE look...

Ive got the ABD tip on mine which i only paid £35 for an fitted it myself. It bolts onto the turbo so how do the silicone tip's connect to the turbo???

 

[Forbez]

Jubilee clip on.

I replaced my Oettinger / RSD tip with the forge one, and was much impressed!

 

[Myki da Pyki]

Ah cool ive always wondered

 

[Tony 156]

cheers for the pic, explains it all alot better. well, know what i being broke over this then.

 

[Forbez]

Is it fitted for that price mate?

 

[pj1985]

Forbez whats the part still clipped on to the standard tip in the pic on the right hand side?
Dont you still need this to be fitted with the forge tip?

 

[Forbez]

Yes, you still need the pressure regulating valve, it connects into the forge one in the same way.

 

[pj1985]

Thought so.

Is it a bitch to fit? The turbo's not that easy to get to is it?

 

[pj1985]

It is THE bitch to fit. Was told it would take about 20mins. Took an hour and 20mins!

Top parts all come of ok but getting it 1-off the turbo and the 2-out of the bay are the real pain. With a ramp it would be easier but defo do it with a friend as tag teaming the mofo makes it easier to get out.

 

[darrenh]

Just what I thought

"Tag teaming the mofo"

Ive just fitted mine and like pj1985 says its a BITCH to fit!! It took me around 45 mins to fit with the car jacked up and me and a mate tag teaming lol. It took no time to strip the parts off and put it all together, its getting the tip on the turbo, its hard against the metal water pipes! I found following a few peoples advice from here and cutting 10mm off that end of the tip helped big time!
