Re: Stanced XUD estate - cwspellowe - 25-04-2012
FYI, couple of points the guide misses.
1. The standard setup has two rubber gaiters on it, one above the pivot and one below. Fit the lower one to the compbrake style shifter, stops crap getting into the cabin and reduces noise.
2. The lower collar appears to be a poor fit on the eBay jobs, the range of movement is limited by it so 2nd and reverse don't engage properly, when you pull back on the gear stick it arcs round towards centre. If you fit a GE style quickshift to shorten forwards/backwards throw this isn't an issue. Otherwise it makes it a PITA and you look like a clown failing to get it in gear. Would be worth using just the upper collar to keep the desired range of movement and araldite-ing it in place

Re: Stanced XUD estate - Niall - 25-04-2012
Looking good
I will add the but about the rubber boot to the guide. I did actually fit one on mine after about 5 miles down the road! Just forgot to add it lol
Re: Stanced XUD estate - cwspellowe - 26-04-2012
Yay pay day! £300 down the drain already. Hopefully get a BIG box of treats for the weekend
Re: Stanced XUD estate - cwspellowe - 26-04-2012
Right, i've put my bank card away. For now.
BIG update coming later, lots of plans over the next fortnight and I'm off work for a week from the 6th so lots to be done, including a rather interesting looking airbox and intake
Re: Stanced XUD estate - cwspellowe - 26-04-2012
Right, pay day means update time and some fast moving progress.
We'll start with the intercooler kit and induction kit. I have coming:
Universal 2.25" FMIC piping kit
63mm 2 1/2" Aluminium Alloy Tube Hose Pipe Tube 1m
Red Silicone Hose Elbow 90 Degree 63mm
Red Silicone Hose Elbow 90 Degree 51mm 4 Ply
51mm 2" OD Aluminium Alloy Tube Heater Hose Pipe 1m
56mm - 59mm SILICONE HOSE ACE T BOLT CLIPS QTY 10
57mm 2 1/4" Aluminium Alloy Tube Hose Pipe Tube 1m
Three different sizes of ACE SILICONE HOSE CLAMPS CLIPS QTY 10
Red Silicone Hose 90 Reducing Elbow 60-51mm 4 Ply
Red Silicone Hose Elbow 180 Degree 51mm 4 Ply
Red Silicone Hose 90 Reducing Elbow 57-51mm 4 Ply
Red Silicone Hose Elbow 90 Degree 57mm 4 Ply
Battery box for a caravan
Red cone air filter
Multiples of some item on the list like elbows etc. Here's why in picture form.
Routing of the intercooler pipes and inlet pipes
![[Image: DSCF1818.jpg]](http://i1128.photobucket.com/albums/m481/martypellowe/DSCF1818.jpg)
Red - intercooler
Green - inlet
Orange - step in ID size
Blue - air box
The manifold side of the FMIC is going to go through the chassis where the washer bottle neck normally is (the washer bottle's going in the boot) with the help of a hole saw. The turbo side of the FMIC is going round the back of the engine as I really didn't like the way a pipe would have to be squeezed up by the master cylinder.
The inlet pipe is going to run alongside the FMIC pipe round the back of the engine. Both pipes will come over the gearbox with a 90degree reducer to take the inlet pipe to 2.5" and the FMIC pipe to 2.25" which it will remain throughout the system.
The FMIC pipe will drop in front of the gear box and around the chassis leg to the FMIC. The inlet pipe will go over the top, through a 90 degree bend and into an airbox that's going to be made from a caravan battery box, like so:
![[Image: DSCF1819.jpg]](http://i1128.photobucket.com/albums/m481/martypellowe/DSCF1819.jpg)
Green - pipes and filter
Blue - airbox
Orange - rubber seal
Red - drainage hole
White/shaded - cutaway of the Evo bonnet vent
The box i'll be using is like so:
![[Image: %24(KGrHqJHJBgE8e6)BkfHBPITgB,rVg~~60_12.JPG]](http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MzUwWDM1MA==/%24(KGrHqJHJBgE8e6)BkfHBPITgB,rVg~~60_12.JPG)
The filter will sit in the main large part of the box. The dividing wall will be used to keep out dirt and water and crap as the bonnet vent will be opened up. The smaller section will be used to collect water etc and a drainage hole will be knocked up to carry water away under the car so the airbox doesn't fill up with l'eau. As the French say. The dividing wall will be opened out to allow air to pass through from one chamber to the other.
This will be an open topped air box, with a rubber door seal type thing sealing it to the underside of the bonnet. Filter will be on show when it's open and tucked away from the elements when closed.
Should work pretty nicely. Will at least look pretty anyway!
Re: Stanced XUD estate - Scott - 26-04-2012
Very well thought out and planned mate, there are diagrams and everything!
Really though that's great progress, at least you're off soon and can get working on it all. The end is in sight 
Re: Stanced XUD estate - cwspellowe - 26-04-2012
The 7 P's Scott. Prior preparation and planning prevent piss poor performance
My RDO's this week are Sunday, Monday and Tuesday so get to batter in then! Have loads of electrical connectors, hoses, clips, all sorts on the way too. Shame I cant afford to MOT, tax and insure it until the end of May. Talk about cutting the deadline close!
Re: Stanced XUD estate - 4WayDiablo - 26-04-2012
Is a 2.25 gunna fit through the washer bottle hole?
Re: Stanced XUD estate - cwspellowe - 26-04-2012
Nope, but it won't be washer bottle hole sized for long
Re: Stanced XUD estate - Dan! - 26-04-2012
Have you seen the slimline washer bottle I have for sale? Might be able to make use of that.....

Re: Stanced XUD estate - Dan! - 26-04-2012
Yep
Its cheap and probably useful though
Re: Stanced XUD estate - ginge191 - 26-04-2012
Amazing mate. Really well planned this.
Hope it all works out!
Re: Stanced XUD estate - cwspellowe - 28-04-2012
Balls, my shiny IC pipes didn't turn up
I do have fuel lines though so I may be able to fire the engine up this weekend if I have oil somewhere in the back of the shed!Just in from work to find my sticky sticks have arrived so here's an eyeful. Just because I can.

Ho hum.
Re: Stanced XUD estate - 4WayDiablo - 28-04-2012
looks bloody good mate! not sure on the ones on the rear widscreen though, theyre not very "white and red" lol
Re: Stanced XUD estate - Seid' - 29-04-2012
like what i see m8
you go more lower right?
Re: Stanced XUD estate - cwspellowe - 30-04-2012
Of course, can't set the ride height until I have the engine running or I won't be able to run the car onto bricks or anything to get a jack under
Re: Stanced XUD estate - Bananalad - 30-04-2012
Will the stickers under the bonnet get hot/peel off
Re: Stanced XUD estate - cwspellowe - 30-04-2012
Dunno to be honest?
Re: Stanced XUD estate - Ruan - 30-04-2012
Just fyi Chris, you might have problems fitting BOTH pipes along the back of the engine bay... You may find you'll need to put one coming past the master cylinder...
Re: Stanced XUD estate - cwspellowe - 30-04-2012
Sounds like a challenge Ruan
Re: Stanced XUD estate - Dan! - 30-04-2012
FYI, stickers under the bonnet should be fine. Had loads on my 205 and they were never a problem, and Pompeymark has a load aswel and from what I saw they looked fine
And also, a friend of mine 'Mowle5677' who has paddy's old silver 5dr (for those that remember it!) has the IC piping coming off the turbo and around the back of the engine with the standard inlet piping there too. Its a bit tight but it works
Re: Stanced XUD estate - cwspellowe - 30-04-2012
Cheers Dan. I've gutted the engine bay round back so there's nothing there apart from the pipes so hoping to squeeze it through, it's 2" for both IC and inlet pipes aswell until the 90deg bends over the gearbox, tighty mctight!
Pissed off though, placed an order with MrSilicone on eBay last Thursday morning. Spent a good £200 with them, got a message Friday saying they had no 90deg red silicone in stock so replied immediately saying fine send black as those pipes will be hidden. Monday afternoon and still not even marked as dispatched. f*cking joke. Was hoping to have it all here by today or tomorrow, ah well am off work for 8 days come Sunday so plenty of time to fettle. Might even have it running by then too..
Re: Stanced XUD estate - Dan! - 30-04-2012
Ah well, thats the price you pay for cheaper prices on ebay, asshole sellers and 'lost' stuff in the post. Sometimes I just bite the bullet and buy stuff in person because its more expensive but at least you can walk away with it in your hand
Il try get them springs posted to you this evening mate, was real busy friday so didnt get time :oops:
Re: Stanced XUD estate - cwspellowe - 30-04-2012
Not you as well Dan!?
FML
Re: Stanced XUD estate - Dan! - 30-04-2012
You've lost me..... :-|
Re: Stanced XUD estate - cwspellowe - 30-04-2012
Just like mrsilicone didn't get time?
Re: Stanced XUD estate - Dan! - 30-04-2012
Ahhhhhhh.....
Its monday - leave me alone...
