engine

engine is dirty but its only 15 degrees outside

I've been looking for pictures of how the turbo to cooler pipes are ran because this is for the td06 kit and i can't clock the turbo enough to run the right pipes.

What FMIC do you have? if you want I can snap you some pics of my HKS IC so you can see the way the piping from the turbo to the inlet is? its not to hard.. You can leave the turbo just like that and pretty much put a U bend going down towards the bottom of the car. Let me know if you want pics.

i would use a large core but i'm not going to be running anyomre than 16psi. The turbo is the limiting factor.

Is that an S4 HKS kit?

Mine is S5.

Clean install though. Mine isn't so shiney.

Of course I think my kit had been through several previous owners before I got it. Maybe some new silicone connectors and T-bolts would help.

Is there a difference between an S4 and a S5 kit? The guy I bought it from had it on a S4. I took it off.. and it fit just the same on my S5 (thats what I have, a S5). It does have a S4 turbo on it now. Im sending it out tomorrow to BNR to get a stage 4 upgrade done to it.
