Anyway I just wanted clarification for myself...and now I think have it thanks :)
Bruce? You may want to inform the person who bought the grimmspeed of the above :wink:


Failing for the purpose that we were using it for, it would NOT maintain target boost due to the mentioned boost leak.

Faulty is NOT failing... quick with a dictionary but find that link in a thesaurus? :roll:

The pierburg does have some small gains for the purpose it was installed for which was boost stabilisation

Know how PWM works? The windings between the Pierburg and Grimspeed are different, thus the Pierburg needs less prop duty cycle

Cars back at Springy this morning getting a boost leak fixed.

This thing is popping hoses all over the shop.

Too much power. :lol:

That's unmanly. :lol:

I never forgave myself for doing that to my dog. :cry:

I did buy some cable ties though on the weekend though $10.40 for a mixed pack of 100 from Repco.

Have you doused the area with soapy water to check for bubbles/leaks?

Something I'm researching for future improvements to my car is using "O" rings for any induction piping.
So many issues with leaks...
I was wondering why Wiggins clamps are so awesome, basically it's the use of "O" rings to seal the joins, so why not use very thin "O" rings to help seal silicone etc. piping against clamps, 1 rings per clamp.

I am running the AVO, but have had the neck extended as initially it was deemed too short and was popping the hose off.

The hose continually popping is the intercooler to throttle body hose at the intercooler side.

Hopefully something can be done.

Can you get the engine cover back on with the Perrin if you're running the STI strut brace.

From what I can tell the answer would be no. :(

Could be a possibility.

There are better clamping options out there.

I'll see what Danny comes up with.
