While doing an oil change a decided to change the turbo oil line. Then cleaned the throttle body then installed my battery relocation kit I made. I can't upload pictures here as I have gone over limit. I'll try using that photobucket thing. Next is the piping!Would love to see pics!Know that feeling too you just get carried away sometimes haha
My_XR6_Turbo Member 282 Member For: 22y 6d Posted 02/04/17 06:56 AM Author Posted 02/04/17 06:56 AM Tomorrow I'll upload them. Took alot a pics when doing the oil line. I might do a "how to" as then one here is missing the pictures. Question 1. I noticed the fg intercooler has the same outlets as the plazmaman (facing down). Has anyone tried putting the fg cooler in a bf? ATM I have a wog cooler which is a direct replacememt would I get any benifet using the fg one besides the pipe locations? Question 2. Has anyone found a cheap place to get the aluminium piping (for intake)? Went to supercheap and they are about $25 a peice. Went to autobarn and they were about $45 a piece. Saw on eBay you can get a "mix" pack for $160 But it does not say how think the material is. Question 3. Does anyone know where to get cheap aluminium plate off cuts? (Melbourne) Last one. Anyone got a tig welder they want to sell? I tried changing the tip and gas on my mig but it's just not the same. Thanks everyone. 1

Are there any legal requirements around relocating a battery. Just as I know how hard it is having a modded car in east/south east suburbs in Melbourne I'd hate to get pulled up one night on princes hey going home if I copy this sort of thing. Haha

My_XR6_Turbo Member 282 Member For: 22y 6d Posted 25/04/17 01:02 AM Author Posted 25/04/17 01:02 AM I have the intake pipe and it has the spike for the breather pipe. Do you connect it straight to the crank case? The factory breather has a valve. Do I need a valve?
