intercoolers just replace standard ones using existing pipe work bud

not to sure about the apexi bovs though think they should be some silicon piping with them?

 

younot going to the NE meet then?

not sure, im doing this on sat, and ive got builders in my house at the moment, if they get finished on sat, i will be under my floor fitting another rad in my house :headvswal

are you fitting bov's in place of recircs? if you are then you need an extra pipe which should come with the kit which fits into the bottom boost pipe the re circs came off of

yup ive got the pipes aswell for the bovs

this might help http://www.twinturbo.net/ttnettech/bov/bov.html :)

I think the pipes had to be bent to fit on mine as well.

You may need to make new, or modify the old air ducts as the Pace intercoolers are much larger than the originals.

Yep airducts will need fabricating. Also junk the carbon canister so that some air can actually get to the passenger side cooler ;) lol

is it much to modify, (the intercoolers) ive been told they are a straight fit, aint gonna get them done this weekend anyway, but will get them done soon

Try contacting Smithy. IIRC he knows all about these things :)

Don't mean to hi jack :tongue:

 

Got some blitz bov's fitted in place of recircs, i used the origonal boost pressure points (one on the side of the plenum and oine on the balance bar, i think) and i know i need to bung the hole's in the intake piping but the other hose's that goes off behind the radiator, can i leave them open?? or bung them up? or do they need to be connected some how? i was told by the person i bought them off that the hole in the bottom of the bov's stays openand i dont need to connect these, is that true?

 

Thanks
