Title: bloody TIP issues
Post by: davemk4 on 16 January 2014, 11:12

Well due to the fitment of my creation motorsport TIP it has caused a breather pipe to tear apart, cut through my dv pipe and finally it repeatly rubs on a metal  pipe on tge block. Sooooo is the forge one a better fit?  Any tips how to make it a better fit as by moving it away from block my air filter rubs on wiring loom case on bulk head

do you have any pics of whats rubbing on what? I have the CM TIP and it doesn't rub on anything in mine.

for the air filter side I know some people have trimmed a little off where the MAF joins to give themselves extra room

You can remove it all to give you more space. I have a 3" intake and no problems with anything touching or rubbing. It just sits as its supposed to

That black solid piping is a vacuum line, you can remove it and the n112, SAI etc. I got the sfs intake with no rubbing at all. Fit very well
