Hey Sasha, Im sure this has been covered, but whats the price to convert my V1 to a V1.5? Im trying to get rid of some oil lines and simplify things more. That and I have a leak from my oil filter adaptor.... Probably user based but Ill get a better idea soon when I remove it to take a peek. Hopefully lol. Its leaking from the main bolt from the center. Anyway, you can PM me if you don't want to cluster this thread. Thanks!

Does anyone know if we can re-use the manifold gaskets once they have been put on then taken off?

WOT for 10 minutes down the straightest piece of highway you can find! lol Im not one for taking it to easy on it. But I do agree with no constant rpm speed. City driving it on a lower boost tune is probably what I would do.

Ive never had enough control to stay out of the go pedal. Has never let me down once tho. I dunno. I say the big thing you want to make sure you do is change the oil after a short while a few times as the breakin will have more contaminants than usual. I wouldn't think twice about driving it hard on a low boost tune, i mean if the engine can't take that then she sure as heck is not going to hold together down the road.
Lol I dont even think I was nice on my second clutch. I think I went to the track that weekend it went in.

Manifold Monday???:
![]() Y-pipes for all those with the F.I exhaust system: ![]() Down pipes in two sections, tomorrow they will be joined by a flex couplers: ![]() I will be working on these kits for the rest of this week, and hope to have everything very close to complete. Manifolds need header flanges and the wastegate tubes welded Y-pipes need the flanges welded on Down pipes need flanges welded Re-circulation tubes still need to be fabricated Next couple of weekends will be dedicated to FMIC piping, but that weill go much quicker than the stainless/exhaust portion.

Some white guys yelled at me (so I'm telling!!! j/P). They said I should wrap my hot pipes and give my turbo a blanket. I had originally planned for this but read that wrapping can cause cracks in the piping. Once they are cracked, it's going to be just about impossible to find the crack unless you take all the wrapping off, which you will probably never do unless it was a big leak and you suspect a crack. I though wrapping was a damn good idea until I read about the crack and decided against it. Well, that and it hides the shiny pipes. I originally planed to wrap because it "was a good" safety measure to melted lines, dried wires and much more. Now I don't know.
In your honest opinion, do you think it is worth it? If so, what side bag do I need for this new snail? I can find the $$ to buy the stuff if it's recommended. Thanks YzGyz |

I just wrapped all mine. I had it on before with nothing wrapped. It actually gets really hot by your feet with all that heat in that area. Living in a hotter climate I'm sure only makes this worse. It also will hold in those hot gasses and give you "slightly" better spool. And again it does help to keep wires and vac lines from melting, which I have done in the past also. I have heard of it cracking pipe also but I have never heard of a BP kit having cracked from the wrap. Time will tell I guess. However, Sasha now uses heavier gauge steel for the hot piping. So if mine ever cracks, Ill be upgrading to the new manifold.
