Poriordan 97 Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 As title states is this possible as my turbo inlet pipe won't really fit with this in the way Link to post Share on other sites
jabe 1 Posted October 5, 2013 Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 I don't imagine it can be relocated well the standard one anyway. Do guys not usually switch to single race car style ones and new pedal boxes ? Cheers Link to post Share on other sites

Poriordan 97 Posted October 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 I've seen it do e on other cars so not too sure and also not clued up on the race ones mate An jay vr I would think so mate unless you going for a smaller turbo it fits but the intake pipe would catch it quite bad Link to post Share on other sites

vr6guy 29 Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 never seen one like that before :Smaybe a different manifold ? Link to post Share on other sites
Poriordan 97 Posted October 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 Is that a polite way of saying crap lol started to move the reservoir now and everything fit mint Link to post Share on other sites
VIW28 29 Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 My guess is you haven't bolted turbo on properly Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 Yeah Ive not seen many turbo installs that require brake resovour needing to be relocated. This is a stealth stage 1 install.... Very tidy install. Club Chairman Link to post Share on other sites

Poriordan 97 Posted October 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 I think it's the size of intake as well it's 4 inch Link to post Share on other sites
Daverse 175 Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 Should be able to get 4" all the way.. can be a bit tight though!Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk now Free Link to post Share on other sites
VIW28 29 Posted October 7, 2013 Report Share Posted October 7, 2013 Clock the turbo 180 degrees, you have it fitted incorrectly. Link to post Share on other sites
Poriordan 97 Posted October 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2013 ^^^ how will that help the intake fitment clocking it only moves the boost location does it not , I can flip the turbo completely so it's gearbox side but this is an even worse fit . I've began relocation on the reservoir now and it turns out there's a few people who have done this using clio v6 reservoir and pipes with the fittings . Link to post Share on other sites

Means your intake is on gearbox side and exhaust on servo side, not fit better that way and give you more clearance? What's it fouling on that way? Link to post Share on other sites
Poriordan 97 Posted October 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2013 It fouls the wastegate and it's very tight for the down pipe Link to post Share on other sites

Poriordan 97 Posted October 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 Yes mate relocated it to the scuttle looks stocking drilled holes for the pipes then sealed around them Link to post Share on other sites

Poriordan 97 Posted October 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2013 Two push fitting I happened to already have so not to sure just matched the ones that were on the bottom of the reservoir Link to post Share on other sites
