Had a spare day today so decided to crack on with some bits I’ve not had the chance to do for a while now
First up was remaking my lower boost hose. My first boost pipe did ok for a little while but I’ve had it pop off under high load one too many times
Here is the original
Here is the new one I made today
So the idea is having a straight joiner rather than a 90 in silicone should hopefully stop it tugging itself loose. It never really sat right and I’ve managed to make it fit a lot nicer than I did before
Second on the list was to make a proper sized intake and not a mismatch of silicone
Here is the before
Here is the after
We’ve managed to increase the size dramatically by ditching the MAF housing. IIRC the MAF housing is 60mm. We are now at 80mm air filter back which should improve flow. Whether it will be noticeable or not it certainly looks the part.
It’s always been tuned to run off MAP based fueling so having the MAF sitting there doing nothing was pretty pointless
So there’s my day off, spent up the workshop working on my own bits
