pops 1 Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 1.5bar with stainless steel pipes, how times had the weld popped before ? Link to post Share on other sites
r36 syncro 0 Posted November 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 This is the first time the welds have broken since we fitted this manifold - i think i need those stainless steel pipes that you have got ...i didn't really want to have the piping made untill i could get the manifold to hold properly just incase i had to move the throttle for the new config ...But you are right the material needs to be thicker and i need stainless pipes....i measured the boost pressure before it popped 32psi @ 7500 rpm.

r36 syncro 0 Posted November 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 32 psi is insane how long will the motor last at that boost?i hoping i can get the manifold to hold and then i can turn the boost back down - and know its not going to blow again. Link to post Share on other sites
