Quick question, why avoid silicone?

Ok more clearly wrote: Use alloy/metal piping in a solid piece for as much as you can (boost psi wont blow through it), If your using 20 silicone joiners and bends, you'll have potential leaks everywhere and it'll be blowing off all the time. Remapped 25PSI has alot of persuasion against rubber.

Obviously where needed you use a silicone joiner and double clip with mikalors

 + Silicone joiner
 - metal pipework


  + ------------------------------ +   = GOOD

  + ------ + -------- + ----------- +   = BAD

Point made

Oh and using FMIC, buy a cheap pack of allen keys/screwdrivers from wilkinsons to keep in your boot. Saves ringing the AA every 10 mins, Blown pipe - Will stall your car.

was thinking of buying a cheap tool kit to keep in the car, may just do that sometime..lol  though i think my install is very tight and has no chance of slipping off.
will take more pics in a bit, too tired at the moment, just finished work

I'll leave that quote there for you, is it remapped ? if so i'll hold you to it

jord i can see were your coming from with the most direct route and lag etc but dont see how silicone is is no good as forge use nothing but silicone on there FMIC and has provent gains plus as metal is a very good heat conductor, so wouldnt you suffer from heat soak?

Fair enough in 1 silicone piece.

I'll rephrase then - "Multiple pipe ajoinings is bad"

you would have to have some flexible joins to allow for movement between the engine and chassis and i think the expansion in the pipe would be very marginal.
 my car is remapped but i still dont think any pipes are going to be slipping off..
