Ben Evans New Member 8 Member For: 5y 7d Posted 05/09/19 11:45 PM Share Posted 05/09/19 11:45 PM Hey all I was planning on putting a dose pipe on my Bf xr6t, I relocated my battery behind my bumper and didn’t realise that the cold side piping would still be in the way of fitting my dose pipe. What is the cheapest option to move the piping to give me the room. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bf pipe work drops down below the motor so there should be no clearance issues from the intake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HI PSI Member 1,567 Member For: 17y 10m 24d Gender: Male Location: Central Queensland Posted 10/09/19 06:37 AM Share Posted 10/09/19 06:37 AM I'm a little confused. A dose pipe is a pipe that vents wastegate pressure. How are you planning on doing that with a standard turbo and housing assembly. Btw, you might want to upgrade your cooler and piping before doing anything else.. Those standard hoses are poo... That will help your cause, by making more room..

Option Also you can use the ribbed flex pipe that runs between the factory airbox and the cross over as it clamps straight to the turbo. Other then that your looking at intercooler kit and cold side piping like process west, plazmaman rapid etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
