Ash just come and see me. Once I've fixed the bus obviously. Can't promise my welding is gonna be super pretty but I know it'll be bomber.

[the milkman]

it would involve alot of measuring and need to hold a fair bit of pressure though jonny reckon you could do it?

[cully]

[Jonny81191]

it would involve alot of measuring and need to hold a fair bit of pressure though jonny reckon you could do it?

Most likely yeah. Ring me later or pm me your plan.

[the milkman]

i'll pm my phones playing up



and cully what the actual feck have you been smoking today?!?!!?

[Oil-burner]

I know a pro welder so I can get anything done to a decent standard

[the milkman]

and i bet for a heafty price lol

[Oil-burner]

Depends what it is, he fabbed up a stainless for my dt for the price of some pipe.
He does it at work so it doesnt cost him owt.

[the milkman]

was just wondering how much to knock up an xud turbo manifold for gearbox mounting?

[Oil-burner]

You're gonna need some mandrel bends etc, guessing it would be a bitch of a job.
Theres a lad just had a box mounted td04 put on his hdi.
Id ask him how much he paid

[the milkman]

ive already asked him lol

[Rippthrough]

Stainless or mild steel? What diameter tube?

[the milkman]

any steel really and i was thinking 2.5-3 inch would work right?

[Rippthrough]

So about 1.75" tube from the head? Depends on what turbo you'll be running I suppose...

ive already asked him lol

And had to sit down afterwards?
's a lot of hours of tweaking to get everything in there...

[the milkman]

lets just for instance say a td04 for now?

come to think of it someone said on a thread a while ago you was a good welder hahah

[ozonehostile]

Birk is apparently shit hot at welding manifolds

[the milkman]

yea but i dont think im located anywhere near birk lol think rippthrough is just over the hill from me tbh

[ozonehostile]

Ah fair enough then
What car you looking into gearbox mounting a turbo on?


Oh and off topic, still haven't heard back from that guy with all the peugeot 505s

[the milkman]

well when i finally get time off work and get paid from the twats im gonna get my arse in gear with the 205 but im just a little concerned with the amount of room so just so be safe (and be a twat to show off a big turbo) im looking into going gearbox if i can

[ozonehostile]

Ah cool, that would be muchos win

[Oil-burner]

You sirted insurance out then dude?

[the milkman]

na either way its gonna get fixed up and if i dont get insured its gonna be a track slag for a year or two and im gonna get a hdi as daily then put back on the road after that

[Oil-burner]

Still cant see why they wont insure you, fecking stupid!
