RIP kit advice please

[V70 Graham]

Been half looking to get a RIP kit for the V70 and I was just wondering if this would fit my ME7 car.....

I know iancho has bought a kit from eBay, but his is pre ME7.....

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1110076890...84.m1423.l2661

My questions are, could I fit either of these to my ME7 car and are there any other makers I should be looking at, there is no chance whatsoever of me making one

Thanks as always for your input

No, it won't fit, the throttle body is under the inlet manifold on the ME7.

So.....are there any I can fit, I can't believe you can't fit them to ME7 cars at all !

Why would you need a RIP kit, your turbo's never on boost?

[sartain87]

Email them pal, they have them in stock and can ship the pre me7 straight away

I mean the eBay link one

It's not the pre ME7 one I'm after, I need to know if there's one for my ME7 car.

Apparently Wobbly Dave, and Black Beast have made them up for their ME7 engines, might be worth a PM.

Let me look at yr set up at the RR and go from there.Nearly £300 is not cheap for that.Hopefully next week I`m gonna start doing mine so let u know the progress.Don`t waste yr money just yet mate.

[sartain87]

They do both pal, I emailed them a few days ago

your gonna have to get it all custom made and it's not worth the cost. i got me7 and looked into it and didnt bother as i thought the money would be best put on a remap.

It's looking that way, bit of a pita with ME7 cars.

Ok can somebody help me out please as i am feeling really sorry for Graham at the moment!

My car is a 1998 S Reg and Graham's car is also S Reg so why can he not by the same kit as i did?

You all know what a numpty i am when it comes to cars... so sorry if it's a stupid question

[V70 Graham]

Ian, yours is pre ME7 with a distributor etc.....



Mine is an ME7 car with an electronic throttle.....(before induction kit was fitted)

[iancho]

Ahhh i see thank you Graham for that and i'm really sorry about the RIP kit mate... I was looking forward to you getting one too

[Wobbly Dave]

I made my own. Issue is the saddle for the 2 sensors on the pipe just before the ETM. I cut & shut that pipe with araldite & rivets.

There is a 300 quid kit available for ME7.

but here it is again.

I did mine using a universal kit - 70 quid from ebay, glue, rivets and some ingenuity.

If it was me I would make one out of some 2.5" steel tubing and weld it together
