Is this worth gettnig bascially, claims on the gti awsome site that it increases ariflow by 70%
Also wgat are the other vital perfroamnce/reliabilty mods on the 1.8t? thanks :smiley:
-
Shouldn't you be asking this on Briskoda you traitor!!!!! :grin:
TIP definately made a difference on my 1.8T. Had it fitted before remap along with 007p. Deffo seemed more urgent and intake noise was slightly more audible :wink:
-
its another 130 odd quid though. i just fitted the relocation kit with the splitter also got the 007 going to trial them both, that cost around 260 more stuff coming v soon plus this tip pipe is on the list!!!
-
My reason for fitting tip was performance not cosmetic, as I want stage 2 one day :rolleyes:
Want to make sure every component is as 'up to the job' as poss.. :smiley:
-
mmmm, im planing on geting the TIp plus the 5 peice forge kit, but im getting a stage 2 remap on sat, and then some wheels, so might be about 2 months before i can get the hoses!
do you think this will be a problem with the standerd pipes?
-
Should be ok with std hoses. But would get asap mate, as you'll be using all that extra boost!!!!
Who's doing your stage 2 map mate???

standard hoses can cope - standard clip system can't lol
-
yea will ahve to sort them out at the same time i think! :angry:
where did you get your new clips from Ryso?
will be a Revo stage 2 mate
-
I wouldn't be surprised if a standard TIP collapses under load on a stage 2 car. :undecided:

mines rather different from you petrol boys - got standard VW clip system on the intercooler and turbo (which are standard) but my intercooler pipe is held on by two large jubilee / mikalor clamps lol
-
yea saw them in another post.
looks like something you would see ona fire truck lol.
and yes ivor it is a blue set im after (the 5 peice and the tip)
-
Be sure to have a rr session so we can see what figures your up to mate....
Are you planning on a new FMIC as well?
-

Might be able to help you out, then. ;) Unless you want new?? :undecided:
If not, then give me a shout when you're ready! :afro:
-
yea mate, i dont mind second hand, well unless there like 5 years old lol.
do you have the TIP as well or just the 5 peice set?
and yea, plan to have it rr after, i dont think it will be big figures tho, my last rr was at 219bhp so im guessing with a stage 2 should see it another 5-10bhp max?
a forge front mount is also on my list as well! :smiley:
-
Yes, I've got the TIP & the 5 piece, but the TIP is for the AGU, though. (The 5 piece is for all 150 engines).
-
well i got the AUM engine, but will def have the 5 peice of you.
how much? :smiley:

-

-

-

Yes I ran it for a few months, but couldn't really notice any difference, IIH. I was about 4-5 bhp down on my last RR (2 weeks a go) with the OE IC back on, but I also had the ebay IK on (vs. the Pipercross panel + DSG) & maybe the suspected cracked manifold that I can now hear was there but not as prominent 2 weeks a go. :afro:
-
p.s. In other words - Inconclusive, lol! :D
-
lol fair anoth mate, how much wuld you be looking for the intercooler as well?
