hey guys got a bosch 044 pump and bought some fittings off ebay that said they were to fit vl turbo. when i looked at underneath the car today. it didn't look like i had all the parts, the ones i bought off ebay look like a banjo type fitting but didn't come with the hollow bolt part. so if you guys could point me in the right direction would be great. i want to put it in standard position and just wanted to know if i had all the right bits and peices before i start. thanks.

If your still using the factory VL wiring with the 044, it's also highly recommended to add a seperate relay for the 044 cause you will overload the circuit and burn fuses The 044 draws approx 14amps plus the internal lift pump draws approx 3-4amps so you got approx 18amps on a 15amp max circuit
