Wanting to fit a dose pipe this weekend to my fg xr6t, iv already blocked the blow off valve but I want it abit louder and more spool. just wondering is it better to relocate the battery and run the pipe to the front or is it ok to have a short pipe next to the motor. Will there be much difference in air intake and temps etc.

Thanks in advance

Hot air is bad. Cold air is good.

Do a search for dose pipe in the box at the top right, change it to "forums" instead of "this topic" though. No shortage of theads!

Thanks mate had a look through alot of different answers was hoping to get it answered directly.

Isn't there a whole thread on "dose" ,find that and you will diffinitly be entertained and might even find an answer.

Yeah iv had a look through, most of it is how to do it or will my Fkn turbo spin backwards. Was more after if anyone has seen any changes to do with the filter sitting near the motor and any problems due to heat. It will be a temporary thing I will be doing turbo side intake at some stage but I have the material to do it so I thought id give it a go.

Also I am using a bit of exhaust cut off im guessing its mild steel, will that be ok?

I have a filter on the inlet of my turbo and it's fine, just heats oaks super quick. If you don't are about that go for it, I couldn't be bothered doing my whole intake again

Ive had a bit of fly screen on there for sh*ts and giggles for a day or two. Now that's loud, my turbo didn't spin backwards and no baby animals were harmed. No boost cut either. Intake temps will climb though.

turbo will never spin backwards, I think youll find that's a youtube comment physics phenomenom aka bullsh*t.

Lol you reckon...
