Hi chaps, picked my Turbo up last Thursday & every journey so far just blows me away. What an incredible machine.  I should have done this years ago.  Had 10 years of TVR's so used to rapidness but this thing is unreal !

Anyway, the heater pipe is absent so need to source one. Any good links to suppliers available? Can I pick up a general length of something similar & cut it to size etc.  Or has anyone got one lying around?

 

 

Thanks.  chinky chinky

About 50cm of this should do:

The standard duct is rubbish.

Buy the cheapest pipe you can find. You can then wrap it with either heat reflective foil or the grey foam you fit under laminate flooring. This will help reduce some of the heat loss.

My advice would be to avoid the seller on ebay that advertises a pipe arrangement. Their pipes are almost imposible to fit. As advised just buy the cheapest. These guys below are really good with this kind of product.... Kindly Paul http://www.europaspares.com

Make yourself one of these too... doesn't stop the dust but keeps the wasps and sparrows off the dashtop :D ...bit of pipe, a few rivets and something out of the kitchen cupboard :)

I think I'm going to need a collar for the bottom bit too.  Had a look earlier.
