K03 MBC

[Midnightclub]

Has anyone got any pics of a MBC fitted to a K03? I understand how they fit on a GT15 but can't quite work out where it would go on the K03.

Any help appreciated

haha cheers for that ginge.. it's not quite the same on a K03 though, think the boost take off to the actuator is done through a banjo bolt

[ginge191]

you got any pictures to where you have access to ??

[Midnightclub]

Nothing useful i'm afraid.. but i know there's naff all room. Hopefully someone who's already done it can pop along with a decent pic

Cut the metal pipe in two, then jubilee clip some hose around the 2 bits of metal pipe.

that MBC is actually the wrong way round..

just sayin'

What he said ^^ Flip it so boost is pushing spring not how it is

[Midnightclub]

Cheers guys, What should i use to cut the pipe? Thinking about it won't it squash the pipe then give me effectively de-wastegate?

[darrenjlobb]

Just cut it with penknife or something, its only a tiny rubber hose....

Better still remove it at both ends and run two longer new hoses up to somewhere easier to adjust!

Ah ok, ruan said it was a metal pipe? I've already got some hosing which i should be able to use, I'll take a load of pics when i do it for anyone else wondering

[Ruan]

If it's got a banjo bolt I assume it's a metal pipe?

I know the K14 uses a metal pipe, K03 might not - either way, just shove it someway between the two?

Okay mate, it was difficult to see so not sure if it's a metal or rubber pipe, I'll see if i can get some decent pictures then that should tell me

[mark_airey]

rubber pipe will be black and bendy, metal pipe will be metallic looking and not bendy

Unless it's all oily because i had a boost leak... in which case.. everythings black

The bendy rule still applies though

I could do with pictures of this too.

I'll be setting one of these up on a K14 soon. How easy is the pipe to access from underneath? Also what is the diameter, if anyone knows. Thanks.

No you couldn't, man up

[lh_4827]

for the GT15, i just cut the pipe half way roughly, then pushed 2 fual line connector barbs in, then a few feet of blue silicone pipe up to near the top mount.

oh and i think its 5mm internal diameter, as the 6mm barbs i used were tight as f*ck..

get round to mine of an evening and help then!
