Compound Questions

dimanche 29 mars 2015

I'm getting ready to install my compounds on my 12v but had a few questions. I'm running a "side by side" setup with a 63/68 over a s488 on a Steed Speed manifold with a JGS 40mm wastegate.



For the boost line which goes to the wastegate, I was originally going to weld a bung into the intercooler pipe right off the s300 but now that I have my s300 in my hands; the compressor housing is already tapped for a reference. Does it matter if I get a boost reference for the gate at the comp housing or the IC pipe? I wouldn't think it would matter since it goes through a regulator but since I've never used and external gate before I just wanted to check.



While on the subject of using an external gate. Do I need to run some kind of flexible bellow between the gate and the hot pipe? I was planning on it but the distance is so short that by the time I put the bellow on the hot pipe is already turning back to the front of the truck.



Lastly sin,ce I'm using a 3rd gen comp cover does anyone make a IC pipe from the turbo to the intercooler? I don't have any problems fabricating my own piping if not. I'm just strapped for time at the moment with school and finishing our FSAE car that the less time I have to build my own piping the better.
