nice mate, does it not matter if the oil filter is mounted upright or sideways with the relocation kit?

filter is a filter mate... long as its got pressure pumping oil through it you can mount it up your arse tbh..

are you still running dump valve danny?

Yes mate why? It uses a v-band fitting that's welded on the boost pipe..

What inlet is that Danny? Not seen one like that before

dannygti
3rd December 2011, 21:02
You can't really take it off mate. What it was, the spring inside it is pretty stiff so when I was running lower boost it didn't really work the dump valve but now I'm running more boost it goes off. Sounds bloody lovely too :)

not sure on a price, its the kit i built up in 2003 for my car that i sold to the guy who owns the ax, then he payed for me to fit it
i recon if you hunt ebay for the RIGHT parts (there is alot of shit on there) it could prob be done for a few £k's

i need a stiffer spring tbh, mine goes off far before im near spooled so im sure itll be leaking on full boost... was going to remove it but it sounds tooo good :D

Pace Rs turbo intercooler and a honda civic rad with an astra g fan, volvo header tank and volvo/vw boost pipes lol plus a saab turbo inlet side and R5 hot side

if you want a load dump valve, ive got the twin port version of this, and its adjustable to be mild or VERY loud lol

http://www.saxperience.com/forum/showthread.php?t=341511 < Aiden's green one. iirc its around the 260-280bhp mark.

Ive just had this one in for some work actually.

Karnik has a build thread somewere on 106 moaners or something not sure on full spec list on that but its rather sexual to be honest.

Pug1off 106 Turbo 340BHP Dyno Run - YouTube 340bhp run.

As for price's i have no idea sorry i dont have anything to do with that.

Speak to Matt or Mark - 01280 701919

or it maybe on the online shop http://www.shop.pug1off.com/

dp i recognise the bay of the green one from fcs this year?

Yea both of these were at FCS. 106 has had a dogbox since and a jump in power.

blackie_2k5

danny iirc the manifold is one of them ford ones likes this but with new flanges

Gav, I think it will be a proper stainless steel job mate not a ford manifold modded. I'm sure Tom will clear this up

Sophia_Bush
3rd December 2011, 22:34
pretty sure it's a ford one I remember someone from pug1off earlier this year or end of last year starting a progress blog of a white gti they was doing and specified it was a ford manifold but didn't actually say which one as I remember texting you about it

Tom5190
3rd December 2011, 22:44
Not sure on the ford thing its possible that someone might of supplied there own or something but we only tend to use our stuff. The ones on both of them cars above are made from scratch the full system's are.

Erm here this is aiden's in bits you can see its not that mani

Mine will be going to Martin's @ Tweeqd to get low comps fitted when im back in UK, at the moment its just running half a bar on a thicker HG, but goes pretty well! I think the turbo and side exit exhaust mounted on the side will help with weight distribution as well.

Won't be two hard then im still use to boost on saxo but it seems there is no manifold around what people are 100% happy with

tweeqd
7th December 2011, 18:59
it depends what people want from the engine, the DP one is ok (primrys are a little big in my opinion) but very expensive, the cituning/miltek one is good but puts the turbo in the wrong place for a BE box

i made my own mainly cos in an AX there is bugger all room so a DP one would never have fiitted and making it myself i knew it was going to to be just as i wanted it

stevo1600
7th December 2011, 19:24
I need the skills to create a manifold. Welding bending etc is something I really want to progress at.

True, my mani has warped, and it puts the turbo so close to the box... Struggle to get my actuator to squeeze in....dp one has also been known to warp in the past iirc

always had some kind of recirc on it. Wouldnt go for atmospheric on it.

well seen as danny told you my ingredients he is correct!ha, got another one in the shed, dont know whether to make another for a bigger throttle body or just chop plate for standard body off this one and reweld another plate on for larger throttlebody.

What size are the VAG ones chris? I'm not so sure a bigger throttle body will be that much of a benefit. Could you port and smooth the inlet?

dannygti
9th December 2011, 22:12
sorry mate forgot about this there around £990 inc

That's EXTREMELY expensive imo for what it is, (not critisising the quality of the product) I've had a quote For a manifold to be made to my own spec using v-band fittings etc and perfectly equal length with 321ss for a lot less than that.

blackie_2k5
9th December 2011, 22:18
i think he said that was full system in a previous post danny, could be wrong.. so custom mani/dowpipe/exhaust from a reputable place would probs be near that...still not chepa but not them ost expensive ive seen


as for the inlet...i knew id seen that somewhere, is that just a new flange on or was it fettled more?

dannygti
9th December 2011, 22:22
I'm sure Tom will confirm but I asked him how much the manifold was, didn't mention any other part of the exhaust system.

blackie_2k5
9th December 2011, 22:27
yeah i seen mate, im just trying to put sense to that price :p

as i recall him saying when someone asked near the start of the thread...that the mani came as part of the system and got a price on that...

if not im with you tbh :fcuk:

the port spacing is about right but the flange is well out and it needs the runners cut down to fit in the bay plus it needs flipping the pther way so the TB is on the other side

you keep putting that out of context quote on yor posts ,but this time it would seem very accurate .
if you turn this manifold around the t/body will hit the g/box /starter motor or brake servo - as it will then be below the port heights+ you have to alter port spacings+ runners + t/body flange---- you might as well start with alloy tubing from scratch and make your own as you must have alloy welding capabilities to be be considering altering port spacings etc
as for larger t/body -- if a bmw 740 (4.5litre v8 revving to 7k can make 360bhp n/a an engine 3 times the size of a saxo) and that uses a 60mm body--then why would you need a a huge t/body when boosting --you don,t-
I think the above proves my statment was correct and especially for for you in this instance

the S1 manifold is more than big enough ,but if you must go larger t/body 55mm is plenty big enough for any tu boosted unit .
If we can get 300+ with only 18psi you don,t need any bigger as you can up the boost with a turbo-- now that is common sense
a smaller t/body will help your light to large throttle transitions and make it easier to map + control the wheelspin

the old maestro diesel/ leyland daf van inlet manifold would be a better starting point than the one you show , as another option --still needs lots of mods .

i havent mentioned a larger throttle body

and yes if you were stupid enough to just flip the manifold over it would not fit, but as the flange for the head would need cutting off and a new one welded on you just need to cut the runners at an angle so it sits in the right place, its not rocket science
again you havent read the post john just jumping in like a 5 year old, the reason i said to use this manifold is the port spacing is the same so wont need changing :wall:

i know you dont need a massive throttle body, thats why i run an S1 item

and andrew this manifold is from an AGU bigport 1.8 20vT engine from an A3T

I thought he ment get it modified so that the inlet manifold stayed as it is but the box was actually flipped not the whole inlet turned upside down

I was referring to the one on the gti mate, as I think that's what e8 was after?

yes, one on the GTI, but all information is good!

I'm running the standard 16v manifold at present. I've seen some decent power put through them so will probably keep it. Interesting to see what other people are experimenting with.
