PaulN Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 Well done you! Nice to know it's worth doing. I've bin meaning to do mine for the last three months - got the insulation ready to cut but that's as far as it's got! Did you use some high tack spray adhesive or some form of mechanical fixings?

trickydicky Posted September 12, 2010 Author Share Posted September 12, 2010 i used some high temp glue and ruvited an ally plate on to the frame were the turbo is . if the glue fails ill just put 2 straps on the sides but if you take the frame out first the frame holds it in place its just the sides. it only takes about an hour to do but well worth it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
