Top work mike.. Very clean install and makes me wanna go charge another just for the build up:BWith all this RR banter.. i am in need of a run to see what astor is running. Hayward and scott Rule.. they did our track 200sx and it passed all noise ratings even at 3" bore.. Although boost pipe in stainless steel if thats what it is, isnt ideal.. although beautiful.  ________________________________________ Team Supercharged Gti-6NV Motorsport Automotive Performance Tuning 0121 448 7515 ECU Remapping/ DPF removal VAG/BMW Diag and Option Coding Peugeot Planet ECU coding/transponder programming etc www.nvmotorsport.com Facebook Page Project S6 |

Thanks for all the kind words, guys  It's not all been smooth sailing, and I'll admit on a couple of occasions I've come pretty close to torching the bas**rd thing!  but got there in the end. I'll write up some of the teething troubles I had soon, as you never know it might help other people. For now though, I'm just going to go out there and enjoy driving it.

Read this last night, although didn't comment as I couldn't see any of the pics.Nice write up Mike, boost piping looks good! Really like the intergrated FMIC and rad solution, thinking about this myself now as im getting overheating issues, and I keep catching my boost piping on things (recently compared original Vs current photos of my car and decided its about -60mm instead of -40mm I initially thought it was. Where did you stash the engine oil cooler in the end? ________________________________________ Long live the Sigma 6Team Phase 1 supercharged XBL ID: farmer uk1 |

Thanks very much!  As far as the aircon pipes go, there's nothing really to see - they run in the standard position/routing. There's a small gap between the IC and the water rad where the aircon condenser goes.. and it's a good idea to enclose the rads with aluminium tape so that air is forced through rather than escaping out the sides.. More updates soon! ________________________________________ Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch....Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.

 It's a GTI6 not a Rallye! I am making the car that I believe the GTI6 would have become.. it's got to be comfortable to drive to the 'ring and back. Megane 250, Focus RS etc. have aircon and you've only got to be stuck queuing in the 'ring car park in July being blasted by warm air to regret your decision! Besides, when I go to Le Mans in it, and the cooler's full of steak, I need to be able to do this:  ________________________________________ Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch....Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.

Can't say exactly - it was part of the overall job which included the custom exhaust and some other shizzle (plus I had my best haggling trousers on).Won't be cheap though, Hayward & Scott don't do "cheap" ________________________________________ Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch....Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.

That's a shame to hear - my first dealings with them was for an RMB ("rear muffler bypass") for my 928, which fitted fine and sounds fantastic.  306-wise, they made an exhaust for Chris/farmer's supercharged 6, which was quite simply a work of art to behold. Seeing his, I decided to go for the same (btw if you want poor quality, you should have seen the "Longlife" that I had on before which was toast after less than 18 months  but that's a franchise and I guess it depends on the branch etc.)Anyway, hand on heart I'm happy with mine**, no problem with the welds or the fit - even when I had an initial issue with the noise level, Ian worked hard to ensure I was happy. Were you by any chance dealing mail-order and off the shelf, or did you actually give them the car to work on?  Or maybe they had the bas**rd stepchild in working that day?(I have no affiliation with H&S whatsoever btw, just surprised your experiences with them differ so much to mine) ** Of course now I'm worried the thing is going to fall off and pole vault the car and me into a ravine! ________________________________________ Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch....Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.

But then everyone seemed to take their cars to them to have them fitted. I was considering asking them about my front manifold downpipe but i'll have a look around instead now. Not a difficult job, just in stainless. Unless I find a turbo that is floating about needing a home...  ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |
