Its a torque tube mate i got it from velos before they closed down mate. It came with fitting instructions from Velos which made no sense at all thats why i had DaveA fit it cause he knows what he is doing

Its a fair comment to be honest jr. I know it aint a VXR but i like the logo and everyone has a different personal preference. Plus its under the bonnet and im not planning on it being a show car or anything like that.

i dont really understand why youve got VXR on it, as said before, have u got anything done by them? im not one for argueing, but its the same as putting shopping lists on ur door advertising sparco and the likes when you dont even have anything from them. same with a M badge on a beemer. very silly if u ask me

but anyway, engine looks

velos did a torque tube aswell, that was round, think purple b had one many moons ago, replaced the lower inlet aswell..... tube kind of says round to me, lol, velos did make the square ones too, but im sure they wernt caled the torque tube... maybe they were and the round one had a different name!

FFS Does it matter if he has vxr on it, who care's its his car, he put up a post to show pictures of what he's done and what Dave has done, not for little nitty gritty comments about a couple of stickers.

what I have fitted there is a Velos torque tube. the rounder version was called the velos pulse 450.

It was a much better fit than those ones that guy on mig was making as well, its a much better design. and as for the VXR sticker, who cares? it matches the scheme of the car nicely and its hidden under the bonnet.

anyway, nice to see you put a thread up, if you need anymore work done (i.e that rattly cam belt) just llet me know

oh, and the gaffer tape on the inlet is there because the inlet air temp sensor had to go into the pipe and the tape is there to stop the pipe from splitting.
