TD04 Progress

[CJ_Derv]

So got a little wet finishing the turbo off on sunday lol
But re-routed air filter quite a tidy location i think for temporary basis until new hoses arrive
going to change the standard turbo pie that bends under the manifold as its very restrictive ive been told so will be getting some 90s and running it over the top in a few weeks (payday)

It's all looking well, you'll love the td04!

Just looking closely at all your air pipes etc as it's something I've to do! What pipes have you used for everything, the filter, and those nice pipes for the fmic. Looking at doing something similar myself, something OEMish looking!

Hi mate cheers its gettin there, i love the td04 its something totally different
To be honest i bought the car with all this pipework im pretty imoressed with the long silicone pipework its pretty strong and looks oem but not got a clue where its from tbh il be replacing it one day soon, definitly changing the wierd pipe from turbo that usually connects to top mount as this is very restrictive i believe, and getting some red elbows to bring it round the back of manifold and new red hoses on intercooler but not sure of a route as yet lol

Not the air intake was a bit if a bodge but seems to work wekk its a 90 silicone elbow that fits the turbo intake and goes to a plastic boost pipe off a citroen hdi engine cut in half with a rubber collar then piece of stainless pipe, then i just used standard air intake but cut the elbow off the end so its straight just before flexi, removed the bracket over engine moubt for room and ran it there seems to tuck into the gap between cam cover and chasis perfectly
