I have nearly finished the charge pipe today have made a flange and welded it on to fit the turbo. Have sprayed it with galv spray will spray it the same as the rocker cover next time.




Trial fitted the dv and vac tubes





Think I will like wolverine said not put the puck back on and vent the catch can to atmos. Will this cause any problems?

I had a old toyo sports induction kit so im going to eventually box off the cone filter to stop heat soak and use that old pipe to make a cold air feed from the bumper.

no problems just gains mate!

It goes in after the MAF because it has oily fumes in which can clog the MAF and mess up the fueling.

In my eyes anything between turbo and maf is bad, because your ecu doesn't know it's their. So i got rid of the puck valve (what you just called a dv  :grin:) and got rid of the fuel vapour vacumn (bottom of the tip)

both i just vented to atmosphere.

Sorry I ment the puck  :embarassed: will change that. I was wondering about the vapour vac as I havent put that on yet. Nice so I wont and let that vent to atmos as well  :smiley:

Thanks, has your turbo arrived yet mate?

Thanks just waiting for exhaust flanges which I ordered on mon and still havent arrived so cant finish the downpipe. Hopefully wil come tomorrow.

makes sense in my head getting rid of things the ecu doesn't know about.

The flanges for the exhaust still havent arrived :angry: so still cant finish the downpipe and start on the exhaust. Fingers crossed they will come tomorrow.

Made up a bracket for the catch can and mounted it to the inlet. Got a filter to vent one side of the can to atmos.





Started fitting the electronic boost controller pulled the wires through to fit the head unit will mount it hear I think in the vent. 



Had an idea to stop heat soak for the cone filter so I bought a aluminum champagne bucket and cut a hole it it to sheild the cone filter and set up the cold air feed to go right to it. Can insulate the bucket as well to make sure it stays cold.





What do people reckon will it work?

 :grin:  Love it, very original.. well it will definitely help prevent drawing warm bay air in, you'll just have to see how hot the bucket gets but then if it's fed it should be OK. :afro:

Thinking ill put a layer of insulation on the outside surface of the bucket protect it a bit more. Hopefully should be all good no bad for £9 off ebay!
