Got my boost pipes welded up today at JD Modified in Basingstoke. They took the original Ali pipes and a bit more material from a straight pipe I had left over. Made a decent angle on the bottom piece going to the Intercooler which was causing clearance problems before, especially with the thickness of the silicone on top. Now, there is nothing touching
. Intercooler has been fixed properly in place now too.
The reason for all this is better flow, less expansion of silicone, more reliable (with more boost going in I don't want things popping!).
