[ibizacupra]

looking good

when do you think the mapping will start bill

 

[barnsley]

fook me that looks like some bit of kit

Jeez! this build thread gets better and better.

thanks guys

asked bill for 400 ponys

This builds looking very tidy and such good use of the space under the bonnet.

 

[ibizacupra]

no option on space.. it kinda fits.. where it does as there is zero spare..
engine mounts mandatory to stop it floppign about fore and aft..

its going to be lively.

assembly next, once engine mount arrive, then the fiddly bits n bobs, then mapping..
its getting there. on the home stretch now. welding & fabrication is nigh on complete, just the intake to do when it it goes back on.

any updates bill/barnsley??? is it chewing up tarmac yet??

think the engine/gearbox mounts are the hold up they were due to turn up at the end of last week but not sure if they have landed at bills yet

 

[ibizacupra]

nope.. frggin things did'nt turn up as expected, nor today. got to be tomorrow now surely..
then reassembly then woohoo

Bill the hard piped induction.
Is this SS or Aluminium?
How did you choose the size of this?
I'm looking to build the same for my LCR and had planned to use the MAP pipe and FMIC OD's as a guide. This will give me 63mm OD which is the same as you have in this project but mine will never be near this BHP.
Will this size of pipe give me any problems?
BTW I'll always use the OEM LCR throttle body

Barnsley's and Bill's thread, but - 63mm matches turbo outlet and TB, plus intercooler sizes nicely, plus 63m is the only practical choice, the next available size down is too small.

From the pics, Bill's done it in Stainless. It's easier to get mandrel bends in stainless, and it's easier to weld and to otherwise work with, although it is a bitch to cut and weighs a ton.

If you had aluminium, you would HAVE to beads the ends, IMHO, whereas with stainless you can just about get away with it, which is good because beading stainless is a royal pain. You could always lay a bead of weld.

 

[ibizacupra]

charge pipework from me is alloy 63mm.. and bead rolled.. not stainless.
same goes for TIP, it is also alloy. 75mm to match turbo inlet & MAF tube.

tbody is an R32 75mm one

and the mounts arrived this morning!!! woohoo!

my ibiza runs 63mm pipe also and >600bhp, but I am considering changing to 75mm pipework and deeper fmic at some point.

 

[barnsley]

pics please bill when you have a spare min to get some thanks

 

[ibizacupra]

aye, will try to do some tonight..
devils own kits finally arrived also so got a shed load of packing & wrapping to do also..
all arrives at once or not at all

Bill are the mounts based on the fabia/ibiza mk4/polo 9N platform? If barnsley don't mind me asking how much are the mounts?
