Got a TDI ibiza with big turbo etc and i keep blowing boost hoses. I've got the forge kit for a FMIC but i want to replace all the other pipes with silicone ones as the joins on the standard stuff are crap.

So does anybody make a full kit for my car?
If not ill just measure it up and buy all the separate hoses but that's gonna be a right pain.

Thanks for any help

Im also running Spitfire pipes and have been for about 6 months now on a hybrid turbo.

Not had any issues what so ever, and Mike and Chris are very helpful too.

A group buy would be no good for me as I have specific requirements due to my turbo and the fact that I want to keep my EGR valve.

I would expect this may be the same for others as well depending on intercooler, turbo, existing pipework etc. etc.

Yes this was taken into account on the IOC website they had 3 kits on offer for different stages people wanted. Not enough people on the site I don't think signed up for it to go ahead.

Nah that wasnt the case. it was more a case of spitfire having issues with the company that were producing the pipes for them. They have since changed supliers and the kit is in full production. They are also aiming to cater for peoples specific needs, such as wanting to keep the EGR pipe in, or already having the forge pipes and wanting the reast to remove all standard pipes.

Ah I see I know a few people had the pipes and were trying the out last year. I also knew you could buy them from the website if you wanted but I was waiting for the group buy as was in no rush to spend so much money!
Not sure what I will do spitfire are quite expensive, they have/had Seat sport FMIC and it was well overpriced. So much so that one of the moderators PMd me and told me to talk to Sere motors on here it was cheaper!

They sell the full pipe run without the cooler itself for around £450, so if you get the cooler from Sere it costs you around £700 all in for a FMIC and replacements for ALL standard boost pipes and the EGR delete pipe.
