I decided today to make my own turbo outlet by modifying the oem 2.0t fsi outlet...I cut the oem alloy tube down below the pinch on it. Added to it a straight 60mm Dia. coupling tube w/length of 40mm. Then, from a 60mm U/180deg. alloy pipe you'll need to cut the portion needed, which wasn't much, go up from one end a few inches to the 1st cut. Then up from there 4 or so inches, but I'd recommend you mark it as needed to fit the turbo outlet coupling hose and cut it after you are certain of the location of cuts one and two. I actually found a small length of what I needed in a muffler shop scrap bin and the cost was free ;p
Neuspeed, or some one, should hire me...now that I finished up with my MET program, right? ;p
This is what you'd want if buying the section...

This is how mine turned out...

Looks good. Get shot of the nasty t bolt clamps for some decent JCS high grips though. T bolt clamps leak boost all day long as they don't spread even load.

Made a minor change today...it didn't hurt...but boost kicked up another notch both in pressure and quickness to build ;p
THIS...

So how does it look standard and what would you need to achieve the latest incarnation?
-
I found this 60mm hose and cut both ends just to simplify and eliminate a couple of extra connections

Defo more pics needed
-
Defo more pics! And what size is the turbos outlet!?
-
More pics of what? Above, it is installed...
The outlet adapter is from AWE tuning, and I can't find the diameter of it...yet ;p
-
Any pictures of what the adaptor looks like, is it just this adaptor, pipe and modifying old discharge pipe to get to this?
-
All i can say is it's a nice try. IF you are low or tracking the car keep the oem parts in the car as the driveshaft will hit and make a boost leak. trust me i went to the ring with a similar setup and we tried to patch it up with different setups 14 times in 2 days. :grin:

Nice mod
