Re: forge tip mix up
What did they send you like??
Could be worse tho, yesterday i was parked up in a "no go zone" (which no one ever bothers with) its meant to be only taxis and buses between 7am to 7pm, anyway, went and just parked up quickly in the "zone" to use the bank machine, was waitin in the Q when someone shouted me across the road to say the traffic cops were driving down, by the time i got to the car again they were sittin next to me tellin me to get out the car and into theirs!! 2 30 quid fines, got told my plates are illegal too! w**k!!! Mind you i was a bit cheeky!

Re: forge tip mix up
Hello mate, we actually sent you the part number you quoted us, which is maybe you got it wrong from the other place too ?
Anyways, its all sorted now i hope. Should have been collected by now and if you didn't receive the right one yesterday, then you will today (UPS weren't runnign a full service yesterday).
Thanks

Re: forge tip mix up
I fitted it today and what a b4stard of a job lol did it all from the top!! Gotts say its tight and had to modifi the coolant pipe bracket on the gearbox so it wansnt touching the forge tip stepped it out a bit! (lucky i have an AA van to hand ha) Also like kenny said that little pipe at the back pushes in if you dont fit a jubalee clip to it LOL! Gotta say its a nice piece of kit and the sound it makes when boostin is immense now!! I cant see it doing any harm daveiow its less restrictive and wont collapse under boost ! Also looks mint under the engine bay now!! Ready for stage 2 now on wednesday!

I agree it also seems to make power all the way to 6500rpm where a stock setup runs out of puff at 5200rpmJeff GTi wrote:i found throttle responce became more responsive, almost more elastic after fitting mine

Re: forge tip now fitted!!!
I agree , but the forge intercooler helped the most with that side of things haven't really been out in it long since fitting so it still gotta adjust to the tip !1
