Bass Junkys AFM to TURBO Duct new thread

[Bass Junky]

Hey ppls.

Well, I'm about to start manufacture of my AFM to TURBO reinforcement ducts.

I'm going to be making up a bunch of aluminium pipes to splice into the standard duct from the Air Flow Meter to the mouth of the turbo.

Reason?

It is well documented that at boost levels of around 0.9 bar, the standard rubber pipe can suck closed, resulting in everything you would expect to happen with bugger all air getting into the engine.

In hot weather this phenomenon will happen easier as the pipe heats up and becomes softer.

Solution?

I'm making up a section of pipe that will 'splice' into the standard AFM to Turbo duct. You will simply cut the standard Rubber Duct and remove a small section of rib, then insert the section of pipe, then clamp up the pipe and reinstall the new duct.

Construction?

Mandrel bent pieces aluminium, in a raw finsih, TIG welded. No polishing will be done, but if you want to do it when you recieve your pipe, the aluminum is ready for it. There will be sufficient pipe at either end to give a good seal to to the air. The best finish will probably be either anodised or powder coated. I would recommend podwer coating personally.

Currently the R33 rubber duct is down at the fabricators being prototyped, and I expect a sample to be ready around the start of March 2005

Not sure of the final price until I get the samples back but they will be cheaper than what you could do yourself!!

The standard duct will not be able to be returned to standard after fitting the new section of pipe, but the duct will be such that it will be virtually invisible to the untrained eye.

They will fit in a TNT Airbag, so freight anywhere in the country will be $15.

Maybe if somebody in each state wants to be a distributor the freight can be greatly reduced.

So, who's interested??

Please advise your model of car.

Any idea of price??? Mandrel Bent???

Otherwise I will just get one from the local exhaust shop made up!!

Robo,

I will try my best.

Angry, the pipe splices into the standard duct, so it will definently fit.

Bobjones, Will be mandrel bend and fabricated.
