apparently you need 45x63 reducer (i think) off the turbo, a straight 100mm long 63mm metal pipe then 63mm silicone 90 off that

also another 63mm 90 metall bend

and instead of 2x 90 reducers off the core use 1x 90 and 1x45 (havent done this but apparently this fits better) and will be doing this myself

also what engine code have you got? do you have a map sensor?

don't have map sensor got the agu and is the k03 not 51mm  and would the 90 pipe coming off the 45 not reach down to the turbo

For the turbo I think it may be a 51mm- 63mm reducer? Mine is an Agu and will be a k03s, i just ordered all the pipes separately on ebay apart from the reducer lol

Out of curiosity can I fit the fmic with the k03 it is mapped to just under 200bhp and If so what is the outlet size off te turbo

Ps.. Sorry to steal your post lol

63x76 90 silicone reducer
63 metal bend 90
63 silicone bend 90
63 metal straight 300mm
63 45 silicone bend

63x45 silicone reducer
or
63x51 90 silicone reducer

im not too sure on the turbo as i have one that i measured but someone else has used the 63x45 reducer
dunno if the silicone has to be tight on it thus the 45mm reducer

seems like a lot of pipework that Rio, where did you get all that from, I am messing with mine on Sat morning and I will get some pics of mine to show what I have done, I'm glad I went with the K04 charge pipe and S3/LCR inlet  :grin:

measured a spare forge pipe that goes on the turbo and its 48mm (the other side is 51mm but think thats the charge pipe side) and i remember when i fitted it to my car it was such a b!tch to get on.....

gonna garage the car for a month so i dont need to rush and can order the right bits then update...put an end to all the fmic piping questions once and for all!!
