[dan wiltshire]

406 inlet elbow and a C5 bottom pipe are the most common ones used......everything else is silicon bends and straight pipework. Use Mikalor clamps.

Search is your friend when it comes to all the info you need regarding this too.......

Spot on thanks guys! will it be easyier on ramps at a garage or not much difference?

I'd say the hardest part is getting at the turbo to change the pipework.........

Anyone got access to the guide I wrote on pug.net?

Given the apparent inability to operate the search, our newbie stands little chance of tackling this.

Seriously mate you're asking an age old question yet expecting to be spoon fed the answers which are on here a hundred times already. Even asking in chat for people to look here. Show some respect and learn to look for the info.

[Dum-Dum]

Have you read the guide on this in the guides section that IIRC has a full list of absolutely everything youll need plus part numbers and prices?

I'll be honest, I told Dan to start a thread as it sounded like he had bought half a kit and didn't know what was missing or what he already had, so sometimes a bit of direct communication is better than following an FAQ.
I'll make sure I point people to the FAQ first in future, and then start a thread if it didn't make sense

To be honest I didn't know we had such a good FMIC FAQ, had I known it was there I'd have asked Dan to look there first

Sorry.


On to the FAQ's though, stuff like Mikalor clips and some of the pipes don't have to be those specific ones. I used Jubilee brand clips, and used cheaper silicone (a stretched 45deg angle piece for the fitting onto the top L-bend for example)... and my system was fine from first-fitting to the day it was removed about 4 years later running about 21/22psi peak.

Obviously Mikalor are great if you want to run mahoosive boost, but most people should be more than fine with good old jubilee. I even used a few old ones from an old Peugeot 405 intake system when doing my FMIC kit
I didn't even flare pipe ends for mine either, just roughed them up and made sure they were clean. My brother did the same and he ran 25psi on his k03 (23psi manifold, 25psi at compressor) at peak boost.

I know some people have all kinds of issues with pipes popping off etc, so big flared pipe ends and huge Mikalor do solve those issues, but they are not cheap... so sometimes it's worth looking at why it's failing rather than spending £50 extra on all Mikalor clips vs just boggo Jubilee clips.


Twin pass is my fave set-up still. If I get a 206 HDi that is what I'll be doing anyway... 206, evilll, yes, but there are loads of ok ones around. Finding a good 306 HDi now that isn't an estate is HARD work!

Thanks
