I can take some pics for you sometime if you want to see how all the stock stuff looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll post them in order and the last one is looking from the back of the car to the front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where does the return go too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brb. Ok so you can see that it runs straight down and around the front of the turbo ust under the intake and terminates in a pipe under the ps pump.

I know all about putting off annoying little jobs. The only problem is they add up and turn into annoying big jobs. Are you any good at brazing? You could make it work with some bits and pieces.

I could get some steel piping made up to go where my rubber hoses are and get banjo fittings put on for the turbo ends. I think I've found out the bolt sizes for the banjo, m14x1.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
