Hey,
Would be keen but short on cash at the moment,
The beanie's a good idea but you might want to invest in some exhaust wrap for your dump pipe as that would be radiating alot of heat also,
Just a suggestion.. :)

I think (don't quote me here) Nick was saying something about not having enough room to put exhaust wrap on it.
With this in mind and the fact the beanie doesn't look 'cool' have you considered going to HPC and getting the housing to your turbo treated with the hipercoat extreme coating?
They claim to be able to make a heat reduction of upto 35% under the hood on a track car.

Didnt have space to wrap the manifold.
Dump pipe I never got a chance to wrap, will do it aswell as the turbo beanie in the future, dont think this GB will go ahead any time soon though as to gather 5 orders from ACNZ is going to be quite a mission LOL
Making a good start though, got 2 now haha
I quite like the look of the beanie eh LOL!
xnickx - October 30, 2008 07:18 AM (GMT)
Wow damn didnt think I would get so many responses so quick!
Got 4 down now.
James (skiddin tezz) is keen in a few weeks so I've left him off the list for now, we can always wait for him if none of you guys are in a rush?
So as soon as I get 5 orders and noone else wanting it I will post out my banking details etc.
Let your mates etc know, good chance to get it at a stupidly cheap price!
Soiled Altezza - October 30, 2008 07:20 AM (GMT)
I'm keen for whenever just point me in the direction of the bank account to throw the money into :P
xnickx - October 30, 2008 06:53 PM (GMT)

Put the $175 through when you can, I've ordered them now as Frantik needs to get them manufactured to the sizes we need.
Use your login name and "BEANIE" as a reference, put through another $10 if you need it couriered down to you and email me your shipping address too
Going to do 5 beanies now, and further down the track I will organise another 5 for those who cant get one now.

I use the hipercoat extreme coating on my race car headers and it is very not cheap. like nearly $600 for just the manifold alone (4-2-1 headers).
if you're going to do it on a turbo car, you want at least to do the manifold and exhaust housing and the dump pipe... hope you've got a spare $1K
Nick, put me down for a beanie. Garrett T25/8. Do join on this list, or on the "later on" list to make up the numbers there?
