Using Copper Pipe From Wastegate To Turbo Pipe. Im Thinking Of Using A 6mm Copper Pipe In My Single Tub Install. Its Just Ive Never Seen Anyone Use Copper For Vac And Boost Lines, Are There Any Dangers With This. They Will Be Held On With Braided Pipe???

No No No just use silicon vacuum piping a lot easier, why add weight and the complexity of trying to get an air tight connection !?:xconfused

Just thinking i could bend it around areas so it looks super neat. Just for the wastegate really. what brand silicone do you use. i bought a load of cheap stuff which im getting rid of, as its very soft even when its cold

Samco is what I use, Demon Tweeks sell it.
