it is tig'd Hooch its the lad who used to own Longlife exhausts been friends with him for a number of year now..
He asked if i wanted the Joins in vband But i'd have to supplie my own vbands for the system..I do have fath in him tho

HTC: Yeah Il defo get pictures up of New Tip but im gonna trace around this bracket ive got and upload it on here so people can just simply print it off and use it as a exact temp plate...Then get a small peice of gauge steel from B&Q and drill 4 holes in too it...

Then should be easyer for people to run a larger Turbo intake pipe..

Danny your too kind Thats actually quite a good idea though mate!

Does seem the right think todo though as i was quoted a stupid price to have one made up.

Yeah No probs mate...

Just Out of interest Once my Oil and coolant lines are bolted on along with my tip and charge pipe can i start it up idleing to make sure theres no leaks and bring it up to temp?

I wont have a Downpipe mind so the lambda wont be connect so i won't be Reving it..Just sat there left idling...?:

 

[DaNnY_LaD]

Ive been in touch with JBS and gonna get them to make my downpipe and then post it out as they have the jig for the Tig-art set up..

The Reason being as im having trouble sorting out someone to collect my car and take it there via trailer so this is a easy option for me.

Plus craig can't do my exhaust for 4weeks as he's fully booked up,So i aint waiting that long for it..

JBS quoted me inc vat & postage £419.75 for there downpipe with EGT Port & 2 lambda ports..
Just means i can fit it my self then.

 

[h17och]

dont you want 3 lambda ports?

 

[DaNnY_LaD]

dont you want 3 lambda ports?

I was gonna get the rear lambda mapped out as im running a De-cat?

Which One is it best to put the AFR one in?

 

[h17och]

defo not the 1st. depends where 2nd one is

 

[ibizacupra]

post lambda probe has to be electrically connected does it not? mapped out signal wise but not hardware wise

 

[DaNnY_LaD]

Yeah i had a rough idea about that..So might aswell get 3 lambda ports put in...so i want the AFR one before the post one dont i...Few inches before it..

And the EGT one around 18'' away..

 

[ibizacupra]

egt as close to the hotside as possible obviously

[TriniVdub]

hey jus finished readin almost all 67 pages lol quite interesting, seems like no matter how good ur car is ur never satisfied.....now thats a true car nut

Just wanted to know does the new TIP clear the shifter bracket? Was just wondering because even though i have a MK4 GTI i have a GT28RS Eliminator and had to go through the hassle of modifying my shifter assembly .....so was just thinking maybe that could work on my setup


by the way do u still have ur old tip or is that the same one, cause it looks different?
