mattross1313 Dimis - I went for these ones in the end, cheap enough, even after delivery charges

I'm still hoping to get it sorted Ian, Jason has kindly offered to help make them up. I just need to get some designs done and sent over Smile

Thanks for the link mate

OK, mechanical question Smile

I want to remove the recirc/BOV from the car. I've been told its easy enough to do. I assume there will be a pipe either side of the turbo with some gubbins attached? Once I remove these I will look to get get some plates fab'ed up to seal the deal. Has anyone done anything like this before? is that usually all that needs doing, or are there wires/ other stuff to concern myself over

couldn't tell you Oli. I don't think its a branded one as its part of the re-circ setup, not a dedicated BOV.......(I think).

For one reason.....the sound! Beats any BOV in my opinion.

the sound is the turbo chopping the air thats being pushed through it backwards, that effectively stalls the turbo, not good for the bearings
