Kate Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Hey I seem to have a boost leak (see below) and was wondering if anyone has a spare pipe to replace this one?Booooo But this is the pipe I need....Thanks Kate
akyakapotter Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 I used metal putty on mine about a year ago been fine ever since
Kate Posted January 20, 2014 Author Posted January 20, 2014 We are going to weld it if needs be but just wanted to see if anyone had a spare pipe lol x
_shaun_ Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 What route do the pipes take on your intercooler I have a box full at home can check tomorow
Skimmy237 Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Looks strange a picture with nice clean painted finger nails haha it's usually horrible dirty fingers ! Haha
Kate Posted January 20, 2014 Author Posted January 20, 2014 _shaun_ not sure tbh but have put an arrow where the pipe sits. (sorry about the awful engine bay pic, was only the second day I had the car)! Skimmy237 - I had been wearing gloves so hands were clean haha! And I didn't want to ruin my nails LOL! X
fremyjay Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 It's the pipe directly off of the throttle body, no????
SmurfyBhoy Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Bet its rubbing where the earth strap from the batterey is connected to the gearbox.
Kate Posted January 20, 2014 Author Posted January 20, 2014 No, it's between that pipe and a pipe that goes straight into the intercooler.... Does that make sense? X
_shaun_ Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 So the pipe goes over the manifold then you have your broken pipe then there's a long pipe with bends on either side which goes from the passanger side to the drivers side and one more little pipe then Goes to the intercooler right? Is that right? It's the long route fmic piping by the way
Kate Posted January 20, 2014 Author Posted January 20, 2014 Bet its rubbing where the earth strap from the batterey is connected to the gearbox.Yeah it's rubbing there x

Is that right? It's the long route fmic piping by the wayI'm totally lost now! Sorry I'm still quite new to all this! A pipe doesn't go over the manifold I don't think? I just need a pipe similar to the pic I put up first of all haha x

_shaun_ Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 The pipe your dump valve is attached to in the picture is the one going over the mani. Am sure I no what pipe it is I'll check tomorow when am home and see
jezza Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 I complained to J performance when this happened to me (was the pipe coming off the turbo in my case. They happily sent a replacement. Worth asking if the kit is supposed to be designed for the car, it should not foul anything. Worth a try...
hookie663 Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 You would be safer welding it lik I did and in further any places you tink MIT rub put a bit of rubber round the pipe
Skimmy237 Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Haha classic this is mint ! A girl that doesn't think she can explain about an engine bay! She knows more than me ! Witch isn't hard tbh
