Do intend on running it next time without fog.light but no expecting much difference. Tuner also cut slots in inner wheel arch to allow more air to pass through

In my opinion is will affect box operation ever so slightly. Will the driver notice it ? Probably not. Will it shorten the life of the box? Maybe... But by how much is anyone's guess and pulling apart two high km boxes for comparison would be about the only way to begin to get an idea. But my opinion is pressures under certain conditions will be different to factory with all the aftermarket lines and fittings being a different size to factory. These boxes are super sensitive to pressure changes at different temps. So it's definitely something to keep in mind.

And I run martini fluid. Will probably rebuild the box within the next 12 months as preventative maintenance and to beef it up for E85 will no doubt post up findings when its apart. Should have clocked over 150k total by then

Ale Member 249 Member For: 15y 1m 1d Posted 06/10/16 09:17 AM Posted 06/10/16 09:17 AM I'm sure some of you are running 1/2" or dash 8 hose? any links to what fitting you used at the box end ? cheers

Came in a kit from the same guy. The coolers he supply's are a touch too wide to go behind the right fog light in a BF neatly. I had to make it fit. http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/1123205746 Edited 06/10/16 10:06 AM by ROB83R
