Heat wrap question
« on: 08 February 2013, 20:22 »
Hey guys, went about fitting my AGU charge pipe today (Thanks Rio) And for the love of me I could not get the heatwrap to fit on the bottom, you know the bit where the charge pipe meets the rubber pipe.

For the time being I have left it off, but Im worried it may cause issues if not put back on, as I am a strong beleaver that if its there, its there for a reason.

Or am I being daft and it will be fine without it on?
