My ICV is welded into my inlet manifold itself- just an idea, but it does mean you don't need to find a way to add it to your TB :thumleft:

Poor picture, but you can just about see it here:

Looks like an interesting engine you've got there- what turbo is that? Lots of RacerX parts :wink:

HI,

have you an other picture please? because i see nothing.

Yes the turbo kit and intake manifold is racer X.

The turbo for start is Precision PT5858 and i think that if i would like more power i will go with PT6262.

The hose goes to the inlet after the air filter so that only filtered air is let into the inlet manifold on idle.

The two coolant hoses are not connected- they are used to run engine coolant through the valve to warm it up, I have never had them connected and it has not been a problem :thumleft:

Yes you can, but after that your boost meter on your speedo doesn't work any more. Was useless anyway :thumleft:
