BSH stuff is now Revo Hardware  :happy2:

The company behind Dubtek, HEL Performance or Hose Solutions are still trading  :smiley:

I was going to get a BSH throttle body pipe but they don't seem to fit too well and foul on the fans so I've asked Alex to make a TB Pipe

Mine fits fine Mike. Possibly it could be the Intercooler you have pushing the rads further back and making the gap smaller so that the BSH pipe no longer fits?

I've never tried one though I do have one of the bigger coolers.  Heard from several people that they've had fitting issues.

Glad yours hasn't given you any bother

Revo pulled the rug from under BSH after their hardware was offered out to everyone in the VAG industry by the factory. The owner of BSH is now rebuilding his business with a new range aptly named Phoenix rising.

End of history lesson :D

P.s

Any links to the throttle pipe? It's pre throttle body?

I think Issam at INA has something similiar. There is an possible negative after effect if the bore of the pipe is increased too much. It could possibly affect response.

cheers steve,

so this Neuspeed pipe is the same but the Revo/BSH one is better because gives you option to import WMI if you so desire?
