This sure has tidied the engine bay a bit.The one thing that does concern me is the fitting of the rubber piping to the turbo. I just could not get te pipe to go over the back lip of the grove and so it would not slide all the way back.I suspect that because of this, the piping may be to close to the power steering resoviour as per image above.Thoughts?

Just takes a little bit longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then removed the joiner and tried to fit the rubber pipe directly onto the turbo. It just would not slide all the way to the back.Went on a cruise last night and all piping held up which was good.

Take that off and it will give you more room to adjust and fit the muffle delete.Just make sure you refit the hot side properly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a few things getting in the way when I was fitting the turboside intake and carefully pushed a few things around and eventually *made* the room I neededLove the stocko look!
