Hi All.
Justin @ BSH has asked us to roll out another BSH GB in the UK......... :smiley:
First suggestion from me is the new integrated throttle pipe - http://www.bshspeedshop.com/store/fsitbpipe.html
A saving of over £20 on the kit before import duties are considered:
£95 delivered
:happy2:
-
Yep the throttle pipe sounds good if you will include the Mk6 TSI version too :happy2:
-
Throttle Pipe sounds good to me :happy2:
What about a full GT3071R kit for £100 :laugh: :laugh:
-
Yep the throttle pipe sounds good :happy2:
:happy2: +1
Although Im weary about fitment on the leon. Would compliment my bay and the labonte WMI kit sat in the shed though :party:
-
Quaife lsd?
-
Not sure buying a Quaife LSD from the BSH guys in the USA would be a good one, but I have a contact within Quaife (Mr Quaife himself :wink:) so if there was enough interest I'd happily sort that one out seperately to the next BSH GB too.
So far then the throttle pipe seems the one, can we start a list with numbers, and fitments, ie Leon, Mk5, Mk6 etc, see if we can get to between 5-10 and I'll in the meantime start talking costs with BSH this week....?
-
Ok I'll kick it off
1. vRS Carl - Skoda Octavia vRS TFSi - Require the K04 type pipe as i have relocated the DV :happy2:

2. SteveP - VW Golf GTI Mk6 TSI
-
this maybe a stupid question but wot does the pipe do :signLOL:
-
Allows the air which has gone from the Turbo, thru the Turbo Outlet pipe, thru the Intercooler to flow through THAT pipe as unrestricted as possible into the throttle body :happy2:
-
wicked cheers carl :happy2:
-
Is there a BSH Turbo Outlet Pipe too? The Neuspeed one is quite expensive...
-
Im still after a intake heat sheild?
-
Might sound daft, but would a metal pipe positioned here not get more heat soak than the OEM plastic pipe and influence IAT? Its sitting between the engine and the rads, so i'd have thought a metal pipe would be a bad thing?
Im still looking at how to get my BSH CatchCan to fit as well as the heatshield for the cone from their Intake kit! Shame they havent designed this stuff to work on Non-US cars better.
-
It's also at the front of the engine so all the air coming through will help cool it. :happy2:

After the air has cooled the IC and the rad tho - just thinking out loud, no idea how much the air temp would increase passing thru them.
-
Probably not that much given the distance.
Don't forget the fans drag the cold air through to help cool the engine.
I used to have the Neuspeed version before I relocated the dv and there was no difference in IAT's from the logs from what I can remember.

Although Im weary about fitment on the leon. Would compliment my bay and the labonte WMI kit sat in the shed though :party:
I have sent out a few around the world that have been installed on the leon, and fitment has been confirmed.
this maybe a stupid question but wot does the pipe do :signLOL:
This pipe by it's self is a flow mod. It will improve throttle response, and smooth out the acceleration. It also comes with two built in bungs to easily install water methanol injection, and an integrated noise pipe delete / Dv relocation port.
We have fitment for both the FSI and TSI!

We have not measured any change in IAT's with this mod.
I think maybe you should contact me directly. There is no reason you should have any trouble installing the intake.
My E-Mail is: justin@bshspeedshop.com
any pics that you can provide would also be helpful.
-

Me too!!!! :sad1:
Care to do two group buys at the same time?

are you referring to the rear heat shield?
-
Yeah thats the one, over the exhaust maifold at the rear of the engine.

Mail sent with pic and description of whats going on. The intake is fitted tho, its just doesnt have that heat shield at the front of the engine as it wont permit me to squeeze in the catch can as well
-
I was referring to the cover that goes over the engine that we saw pics of a month or so ago.
-
would it not be better to list BSH products and have a poll , that may give a better indication?
-

There isn't much room to do a group buy on a $30 part, but Dub Tek usually takes them 3 to 5 at a time and I am sure he will have them in his next stocking order.

I received your E-Mail and I am working on a plan of action to get you squared away.
expect a reply in he next day or so...

as of right now I have authorization to do a group buy on the throttle body pipe kits and the Snow performance water/methanol. I might be able to work something up on the rear sway bar, and we are just getting ready release the MKV TSI and MKVI TSI Torque mount & pendulum mount!
the truth of the matter is that it is not the discounting of the product it's self that makes these sales work so well, it is the savings on the shipping so if you all get together and just order a bunch whatever it is that you need you will all save.
-
@ Dubtek or Justin, can I suggest we get some prices/product options listed as to what people could choose then we will get some more interest I am sure
-
My post was more of a reminder for dubtek, as i am still waiting for them to get back to me with a price and delivery.

Any possibility of a group buy on the rear drop links? I take it that they can be used in conjunction with other rear ARB's such as H&R, White-line as appose to solely BSH ARB's?
Luke.
-
Not at this stage snapey no sorry. TBH there isnt enough margin in them to discount them much more, they are very cheap already for what they are.
This GB is definately going to be for the throttle pipe now, so lets try and get to 10 and I can get the best prices out of BSH as soon as we hit that figure...
We've also been offered a further GB discount on the snow performance water/methanol injection kits to go with these pipes if we reach 10 too.... :grin:

is there any data logging before and after anywhere with this?
-
Is this as easy fit I know there may only be a couple of fittings but are they easy to get to i.e. from top of engine. The reason I ask for a mod of this sort of price I'd want to be able to take it off easily myself to sell before the car goes.
Also I'd suppose this would work best with an uprated intercooler???

I do have some somewhere from when i had a neuspeed version of this attached. I have since taken it off due to relocating the DV but from memory i never noticed anything different. All this pipe will do is improve the flow, which in turn *might* give you a couple of extra bhp/lbft. So although it's not really a power mod it helps keep everything running efficiently.

They are easy to fit but not from the top of the engine. You need to have the car on axle stands & remove the undertray. Start to finish it should take no more than 90 mins. It took me about 45 mins to do the neuspeed one.
Once i get mine i will do a tutorial with pics to show how easy it is to fit.
It's not necessary to have the uprated IC but every little bit helps.

Im out, dont really see the point in it with the above reply :confused:

Anymore takers? Need at least another 2 names to get this off the ground and achieve good pricing for everyone.
-
Seen as it looks like we've stopped at 8 now, I've asked BSH to formulate the best price they can do for us, which I'll post for people to make their final decisions as soon as it comes through.

Is there a price on the TB pipe yet?
-
Any updates ? I am also interested too (Require the K04 type pipe as i have relocated the DV) same as vRS Carl
-
Yep i was wondering if this was still going ahead. Looks like we have over 10 peeps interested now so hopefully Ben can do us proud and get us a good price... :wink:
-
Just waiting on confirmation from Justin@BSH, seem to be having email problems their end unfortunately. Only some messages getting through :mad:

We are back up and running now! I sent over the pricing earlier today. I will be monitoring my E-Mail over the weekend if you want to finish this thing up so we get everyone there new toys. :smiley:
On a second note I would also like to see what kind of interest there is in water/Methanol injection Kits. This Throttle body kit is a perfect platform to easily mounting a W/M Kit and we are able to offer some great prices on the Snow Performance units.
If you guts are interested in doing this next or along side this GB let Ben know.
-
It would be good to offer it as an option with this kit :happy2:
-
Ok guys, better late than never.......
A saving of over £20 on the kit before import duties are considered:
£95 delivered
Those who are named on the GB list, paypal would be best for this, to sales@hosesolutions.org.uk . Anyone who cant do paypal please drop us a pm and we'll pass alternative payment options.
:smiley:

For people sitting on the fence, heres the link to the product info, pics from the BSH website....

-
Is that the group buy up and running then?
When does payment need to be in (i.e. can i pay now?), and how do we specify what type pipe etc or are you just going to use what is on the list above?
-
We could really do with another show of hands really, as some people were putting their names on but only price dependant, not definate takers.

Well i'm in. :happy2:
Might be worth adding the price to your first post Ben?
-
Well this looks to have crashed and burned despite having a good number of initial takers.
Anyone who wants one drop us a message and we'll sort a deal out hopefully somewhere near the GB price if we can.

You have pm mate
