help me find a Fabia vRS air intake pipe please

vrsmeansyellow · 19-11-2007, 23:55

Hey guys n gals,

Ok, so a while back i fitted a diesel dump valve from forge motorsport to my fab vrs, this involved cutting through the hard plastic air intake pipe on the left side of the engine which connects to the intercooler. Obviosly when i took the dump valve off it left the pipe split in half, and i did have it joined with silicone pipe but after getting a remap, the pressure prompty blows the two halfs apart when i put the foot down, which is no good when trying to beat the guy next to me who thinks his car is faster, no chance!
Anyway, apart from going to a dealer and paying too much for a piece of plastic, does anyone know where i can get another pipe? please give me an email if you know where i can get one or you have one lying about that you no longer need. THANKS

email is mike-112@hotmail.com

Is this the pipe you replace when you fit the PD160 airtake pipe? If it is iv still got my old one, your welcome to it for cost of postage mate.
