Handmade in Germany! These are made on a per order basis and not normally stocked (expect 4-6 weeks for delivery).
Specs:
- Materials:
- 1.451 stainless steel (AISI 321) piping
- Mild steel flange
- Back purge welded
- Dimensions:
- 42.2mm (1.25" nominal) OD piping
- 2.6mm (0.1") wall thickness
- T3 flange, internal wastegate
- T4, VBAND avaliable (as option)
- External wastegate avaliable (as option)
- Equal length design
Features:
- Clears angle gear on AWD vehicles, even with EFR 8374 turbos
- Stock K24 main water pipe can be used
- Stock oil drain location in block can be used with most turbos
Note: This is a high performance custom part that has to compromise for very big turbos, AWD, runner length and universal use – so there are a few things to be taken care of as note below...
Installation Recommendations:
- Large / heavy turbos should be supported by additional bracing / turbo hangers
- Rear gearbox mount might have to be clearanced depending on turbo selection
- P2 vehicles need to re-route AC lines on the firewall
- P2 vehicles should replace stock firewall head shield with thinner material
- Some cylinder heads need to be clearanced slightly for the cyl. 5 pipe
- P2 cars have very tight clearance to firewall, we recommend using stiffer engine mounts to compromise for engine movement (and solid strutbar mounts). Spacing the rear gearbox mount improves clearance
- P80 cars might need heat shielding on the passenger side brakeline (alternatively rerouting)
- Wastegate actuator bracket might need modification to clear firewall with some turbos
