dongle Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 This PTC mod is so good. What size tubing did you use for the stand-off bit? and the rubber coupler as well? You're getting quite good at working with the HTS btw. I know its not easy to get it looking that clean. :tup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B Mac Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 Hussein, proress is looking great so far! I wasn't exactly sure what you had done with your PCV setup but now it's clear Nice job Dude when you come to pick up your axle, can you make another intake and bring it up for me? I'd love to ditch my plastic setup :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookforjoe Posted December 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 This PTC mod is so good. What size tubing did you use for the stand-off bit? and the rubber coupler as well? You're getting quite good at working with the HTS btw. I know its not easy to get it looking that clean. The aluminum tubing is from a Weber BBQ leg ..I think it's 3/4". Slightly larger than the PTC. The rubber coupler for mine, is cut from an old IC to TB hose, from the IAC section. I wanted heavier hose, since I'm drawing much more CFM's than stock, don't want any unmetered air creeping in. The small coupling as pictured, is a cut-down flame trap holder from a 240/740 NA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to ditch my plastic setup Hi Ben. I don't have extra piping, so if you want to order an "L" hose, 2.75" elbow & 2.75-2.25 silicone step coupler ( I bought from eBay "just-intercoolers" "Al Intercooler Intake pipe 2.75" OD 90deg L Elbow Turbo" CXRacing) & have it drop shipped to me, I'd me glad to make one for you. The nipples I used are pulled from an intake manifold, if I have to buy them from HD, it's gonna be about $15 worth. If you have an old intake, pull the all brass fittings (elbow is for brakebooster line,on underside) from below the vac tree & mail them to me ahead of time.

DevolvR Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 Man I wish you were my neighbor, I'd probably hang in your garage everyday.... absolutely love how clean your car is, and the mods you are doing are top notch, kudos to you ingenious custom mods and fabrication, not the typical stuff you see everyday on VS.

Thanks, Will! Hopefully we will get some better snow footage as the winter progresses... On a side note, been back & forth with J a fair bit - his tune still needs work, it's just too lean up top.

scandalo Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 So I was looking it over your FMIC redo. You cut the bumper right? How is the clearance between that and the bumper cover? And what size what that intercooler? NVM in your save file for the intercooler pics it says it is 28x8x35 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
