Exhaust Flange Design - 16 February 2011

Status - Boost Pipes & Intercooler - 11 February 2010

Collected my boost pipes & intercooler this evening from Shaun (SLSL Couriers), when I got home and unpacked the box, I saw the boost pipe running from the intercooler to the intake doesnt have a 50 mm pipe welded onto it to fit the dump valve, the other boost pipe that was supposed to run from the turbo to inercooler, how this pipe was supposed to run from the turbo to intercooler only Jan will know. Thats now one way to spend R 4050. But not to worry I will figure something out.
