nah ross, i just came up with the idea myself really, i mean i knew some people did it, and i figured it was better to have the pipe crossing under the car where its cooler rather than through the hot engine bay....

xu6 was hsv's supercharged and tweaked v6 commie, problem was when the ba falcon came out, the base 6cyl model out performed it

lol - nice progress on the engine development holden. ford are killin em in this department - quad cam v8's and dohc 6's.

yeah the x-over in the engine bay seems a bit silly. so yeah - is that a 90degree silicon bend or solid pipe?

ok the pipes cost me 150 bucks from memory

there were 2 45deg mandrel bends, 2 90 degree mandrel bends, and 1 180 degree mandrel bend. no silicone bends, silicon turbo pipe was costly (red joiners) but that was about it, only thing i have to do is support the pipes a little better cause when you hit it with full boost they move around a little bit

ross um

only other pic is www.ozemail.com.au/~jcornford/ic2.JPG

the pipes were done by ashmore exhaust, and then i just had to cut em to suit, it was a bit of a bitch tho, in the end i cobbled it together rather roughly but it works, theres a few things that could be done to tidy the whole thing up if i get the time, which i incidently have now, i just need to get the effort :D

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
