hey who could tell me where these pipes are supposed to go ,the first one (by the way my car is running fine)is located on top of the WG and goes directly to the intake manifold but has a T piece just before it that goes to the boost gauge, which all seems fine , now the second fitting on the back of the WG has no pipe on it at all and seeing how im just about to put a BOV on the intake piping i was curious as to what this fitting on the WG is actually for ? also would fitting the BOV into the first line(for vaccum) to the intake affect anything ? who has done this ? help me please worried about fuc@##$ it up!

are you talking about the bit on the side of the wastegate? thats the exhaust part.. u usually put a pipe goign towards the ground or plumbing back into your exhaust system.

id be thinking it would be the air pressure feeds to control the boost pressure..

top is feed from pressure side from the boost controller, side is direct feed from the pressure side (hot pipe or plenum)

is there any where i could get a diagram of these lines for a ext WG as i can see what you mean one goes to the inlet plenum which splits just before, to feed the boost gauge,( my car isnt currently running a boost controll er or a BOV) and the ohter one on the end has got a pipe on it yet (does have a sreamer pipe pipe running underneath the WG)as the pipes im talking about are 6mm rubber hoses

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
