Its the big one that acts a joint from the cross over to front of the turbo. See pic.Has someone got a part number or suggestion about replacing it.

And face the brand name down on the silicone so it looks factory. Edited 31/07/12 01:54 AM by Wenier 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
