Pipe From Cooler To Throtle Body

[BensXR6T]

The N/A plastic pipe was not designed to take boost, what are the chances of it splitting at the seam lines?

That question came up when I was playing with it a couple of years ago. Could be an issue there.

But I never proved either way, as my BOV tap was a weak spot in my setup.

I did mine like this.

there is a steel pipe inside the corrugated section, and the bov resides inside the false airbox.

as for the plastic section taking boost, mine has been putting up with 15lb since november with no issues so far.

interesting....so you have a solid pipe running right through the original airbox and UBP for intake?

yep its a solid 3inch pipe upto where the corrugated pipe joins the plastic piece that meets the throttle body.. hence the double hose clamp. and yup under battery intake for the turbo Its all home made, but heavily inspired from te likes of rapid & process west.

cheers mate.. that was the goal, get rid of the cross over and still keep it looking stock.

since those photos ive blacked out the joiners and clamps to the cooler also, only thing that gives it away now is the induction noise
