Is someone deleting posts? There was no reason for those posts to be deleted, I read them. Who deleted them, and why?

veecee · Post by **veecee** » Fri Feb 01, 2008 7:09 am

it looks to me like hennie deleted them, unless someone else has his username and password.

**** Update****

Hi guys here are some updated pictures of the R&D fitment.

Intake Removed
------------------------

Test Fits

Blurry Pic of the Port

Problem Area's
-----------------------------

The Water line running under the intake need to be re-routed

Quick question to all the guys on the fourm there is a Pipe leading from the thermostat intake manifold (Pic 1) under the old intake to copper hard line under the intake (pic 2) .

Can this Pipe be removed and If not why?
I know it could be a water cycle but my thermostat says partially open so can it be discarded

Thankz

i'll go have a good look at it in the morning, but i think the copper pipe feeds the turbo - so dont remove that.

as for the smaller pipe - not sure now - but i will return soon with an answer.

oh ja - i think that manifold is hotcakes!

my order will be in soon!

you think it can be made so that it gives more low down torque than the stock manifold??? i dont want top end, cos i need lots of power from as early as possible - and i dont want to make my sx a turbodiesel!!!
