guide for fitting a forge tip

if i can help at all mate, lemme know!

What is the oil problem? If you have a leaky Crankcase pipe it will blow a little oil on the engine, smells bad but other than that is ok. Or I am talking about something else.

nah it has that breather pipe but im in need of a dipstick tube also and i think the copper washers on the turbo banhos arnt up 2 much ned to service clean and keep close eye on it really, anothing thing to do this weekend

Sparkie me old 20vT mate.
Do you know the size of the jubilee clips you used on the TIP?
I am going to buy some proper Mikalor T-Bolt clamps before I fit all this up so it is not going to leak and they come in far more exact clamp sizes. I am going to buy loads anyway and do the complete turbo and air intake set up.
I think they are 60-75 mm jubilee clips, how much did they get tightened?

hmm, im not exactly sure cali!

you coming on saturday? as we could have a measure up (of the clamps)

im also gonna go with your advice and get some and replace all my intercooler ones as im worrying about it flying off again!

OK, we can do a bulk buy and get a discount, count how many you need of the large size....

Saturday is on but I don't expect to be allowed to play with cars much.

whys that? just thought we could have a quick look, i dont want to say a size and their wrong for you mate thats all!

ill have a count up, and may get the tip ones too, may as well do it properly while im at it!

My lovely lady will kill me if I spend an evening out looking under the bonnet of my car.

fair enough

OK, pipes and clamps have arrived, can we do this in the dark with snow on the ground?

Hell yeah

Instead I did it last week with help from Steve.

It all came apart really easily but getting that pipe over the turbo inlet is quite a pain. In the end I was pulling and Steve was pushing with instructions to twist. When it did start to go on it went quite quickly.

Not sure I would want to do this again.... Pictures for the Golf will be coming soon.

steve was saying about it actually, sounds like you had trouble same as me and i had the misses up top pushing! glad its done mate
