Which elbow fits s15: s14 or s14a?

[Kango]

As title really. Gonna get one, but need to know which to buy?

 

[Nicely]

S14.

 

[Kango]

S14.

Thanks mate that's what i thought :thumbs:

 

[Topper]

.. & S15 :d

 

[Kango]

So, i need an S14 one. But, what's the differnece between the s14 and s14a elbows?

 

[Nicely]

This...

S14 elbow is on the left.

 

[Kango]

That's a bit of a difference! What's different on the s14a that requires such a different elbow? Is the turbo mounted lower down on an s14a?

 

[Nicely]

The front pipe is longer on the (Euro) S14a due to its additional cat.

 

[Kango]

Ahh in that case my Mongoose s14a turbo back exhaust won't fit then. Well, if i get an s14a elbow it will.

Hmm, i might just bite the bullet and get a downpipe as well. How do people rate the s14 downpipe on Drifworks? You know the one with the flexi?

 

[Nicely]

The exhausts aren't the same length either...

My advice would be to get an S14 elbow and S15 front pipe, otherwise you won't be able to fit the front pipe support bracket... I believe the S15 Blitz front pipe is a good price. :nod:

Alternatively you can machine/fabricate a 3 hole flange copied from the gasket. Bolt on the flange first then adjust the angle of the down pipe for welding to minimise angular stress on the elbow and down pipe.
