GTRS + Racetec + front bumper

[Molotov]

camera phone and ms paint!!



So I finally got it all installed and started up, still smokes even after 10 minutes of idle, not too worried though.. hands were pretty greasy during install

The problem I'm having is figuring a way to route that pipe so that it doesn't get stuck on the bumper.

What did you do for yours? Or any other ideas would be appreciated.

(already loosened everything and tried to push it all together more)

I had to trim some of the plactic around the fog lights

[Molotov]

yeah foglights aren't the problem. it's hitting the bottom of the bumper where it protects the engine from debris on the road.

Better pics would help.

You need to undo the entire hot side (passenger side). Or try and turn the pipe attached to the intercooler counter clockwise. I don't have a picture showing exactly but you can kinda see how I did it.

[HTA A4]

You have to shove the smog pump to the left and go JUST to the right of it. I have a K03 still so my piping fit without problems but with the GTRS you'll have to do a little modding to get it to fit

[Molotov]

alright thanks, cant get better photos, shitty camera phones is all i have access to right now.

I will start undoing the hotside and start by turning that first piece around like the first picture

Flip the pipe in your picture 180...

It looks like you went under the hose I circled in lime green. You have to go over that. The smog pump is circled in yellow which you have to go the right of. Don't be afraid to give it a good push to get it moved out of your way.

[Molotov]

yes thank you very much. currently trying to get enough room to pop the hose onto the turbo (already have that smog shoved out of the way. But once its on the turbo end everything else is mocked up and where it should be, ready to be tightened down.

Just getting this elbow on the turbo is a bitch.

Most likely you need to clock the compressor housing on the turbo a little differently. While you are at it clock the center section just a little bit so the oil line matches up a little more nicely.

[Molotov]

thanks a lot everybody, i got it

[Molotov]

err spoke too soon, i have it up above the coolant but now its running into the fog light

[HTA A4]

Yeah, I had to trim both fog lights. But start trimming on the passenger side and you might be able to get it with just trimming on that side
