Also worth mentioning With single pass intercoolers unless you remove the air con you can't go down the drivers side of the radiator,so you'll have to run a cross the top of the intercooler to go down the passenger side like I have.

Thanks! Haven't got a pic of that have you?
And yeah i need to get a blog going soon!

Would a 70cm x 15cm x 6.5cm intercooler fit a 306?
28-02-2013, 12:40 PM
It would fit in the gap behind the bumper, the rest of it depends on your piping.

Cheers poodle. And cheers midnight good sounding that
Current mods i have are decat, stage 1, mid box as a backbox, would an intercooler go well with that?

In my experience i found it just pulled alot harder all over the rev range in general once i fmic'd it, guessing it's the massive drop in charge temps though.. i got a bit bored shortly after and whacked it onto stage 2 full fat though hehe

thats my plan but upgrade my clutch first, won't be until a years time, just want the fmic to keep the passion going!

Is it worth putting silicone sealant on all the conections when im fitting the piping? They seem a really good fit, without the clamps they were tough to get back apart.

Hairspray is the way forwards! it seems to lubricate them going in and then set and hold them like feck, whenever I've seen it done, its worked like a charm!

Right, the c5 bottom pipe has arrived, which end goes on the turbo? Because one end is 1.5inches and the other is 2.5 inches, thanks!
What size would I need? Also the c5 bottom pipe is basically 90 degree anyway?
01-03-2013, 11:28 PM
01-03-2013, 11:44 PM
And that's what connects the c5 bottom pipe to the turbo?
01-03-2013, 11:52 PM
Thats the exact pipe i used on mine bud. Have fun getting the original turbo to inlet pipe off, i chopped mine out!
So which parts connects to the bottom of the turbo and which to the top and how? Because I'm confused as sh*t lol. I know one connection to the turbo goes to the exhaust but which end does the cooler connect to?
Come on man, it's not complex, do some research already. As has already been pointed out, all this information is VERY readily available in the guide and project sections, including pictures of everything. The new turbo pipe goes on where the old turbo pipe comes off, it's impossible to get wrong.

If you cant understand it i blame last night drinkage

I've done research I've read every fmic article on here and one in tdoc, I just couldn't find a diagram of how the actual turbo is connected to everything, I understand now, thanks steve!

What size pipe is is that goes onto the turbo? As ive got a 41mm 90 elbow but listed above is a 41-45mm reducer elbow?
02-03-2013, 11:13 AM
That's the one I bought last night due to Arron advising me, all I need now is the 406 elbow, pipe kit and a 45 degree silicone bend for the elbow
02-03-2013, 02:27 PM
Fair enough mate, sorry i'm not very patient in the mornings.
I've got a 406 inlet elbow here, pm me if you'd like it.
02-03-2013, 04:00 PM
Has it got the part which connects to the silicone hose attached? I can't find one that has that part already attached haha, but yeah I'm looking for one!
Got any pics of it? And how much posted?
06-03-2013, 11:12 PM
