when i got the version 8 sti intercooler conversion done
we had a problem with the hks ssqv
it just clears the bonnet so if im driving in fifth or forth at low revs or if i pull off at low revs it will hit of the bonnet when the engine rocks
I need a different connection so i can move the valve away from the intercooler so it is not hitting of the bonnet
anybody know what connection I need so I can get one :dontknow:

Any advice appreciated
Thanks :thumbsup:
 
yeah think you are right
but i think the problem I have is
my valve was for a classic and also so where the fittings
its now on a version 8 intercooler so i dont have the proper flange needed to connect a pipe to
so it will be separated
 
You can twist it, it might be just enough if you've got enough clearance between it and the manifold, although an adaptor would be the best solution.
 
@Nic Yeah we tried turning it but it still doesn't clear it
think i need the adaptor for them that you get with the kit when ordering for a newage
will try and find one
@Hammie thanks for that but i don't think i can connect pipe to the flange i have
Thanks Lads :thumbsup:
 
Pity your flange won't let ya!
Mine has been like this since I got the car!!!
