Any turbo inlet fabricators in Auckland?

Intake pipe or a bellmouth/inlet sleeve?

Not the intake pipe, I want to replace the silicone hose with a metal one. This is the second silicone inlet that collapsed within the span of 3 months. I should have left stock one on but decided to change it for peace of mind due to its age. I thought it would be worth it to ask here before I get one shipped from the states.

What brands are you using? The better ones are supposed to be reinforced with SS wire to prevent them collapsing.

MandH was supposed to be reinforced but didn't really seem that rigid going by my personal experience. Was a mission to install too and it wasn't the same size as the stock one

Do you know if AVO make 3 inch ones?

Agency power make one and I am leaning towards that one if I can't find someone to fabricate one for me. I'd rather pay someone local than buying it from overseas and wait for a couple of weeks for it to get here

Its obviously not big enough so comment still stands .

Iy prolly takes 2 psi to suck that hose in . Thats psi extra your turbo has to generate above what you are seeing on the gauge or feeding to the engine.

At a wild ass guess your running 20 psi . Thats 10 % more work your turbo has to do that it needs to do . Hmm more iat . More exhaust back pressure .

Still laughing out loud ?

We ran it with the factory airbox, then aluminum intake (not inlet) with and without a filter and just a mesh around the intake. Still the same issue. Trust me, the pipe is just collapsing on boost no question about it.

Good call on LDS Fab though, got a very good price from him.

190 including GST, shipping and the silicone coupler. 160 without the coupler. I am also sending him my stock inlet so he can get it as close as possible. I am only getting the 2.5" diameter but price may probably change for 3" one. If you want yours done then just message him, he is quick to respond.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
