Didn't fancy any welding and grinding this weekend so I spent it playing with my box instead, and noticed that the gauze on the central pickup pipe had split, so before I go out and blindly order a new one are there any differences between them? and is there a particular one to go for or are they all pretty much the same?

Mike, are you saying you run a center pick up without the gauze? as thats how it reads. You are in danger of making yourself look like a tit if this is the case On 26th Oct, 2004 TurboDave16v said:

The MiniSpares one seems good, no question. But mine was welded on the inside, thus making the opening on the flange, where it bolts to the gearbox, a bit smaler than the original. Might pose a restriction on some engines with a need for much oil...?

It was a certain company that painted it. J&j minis or summat? But it was the finer gauze that also contributed to the issue so i swapped it out an ms one. 1/4 Mile 14.3secs 96Mph Terminal 10psi of boost.
