the yellow is the pipe im talking about any1 have a clue. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

it should run up to the wastegate actuator.

ohh ok so insted of using the long pipe to the manifold i can use that insted.

umm, isnt that pipe supposed to head in this direction? as OVL87 said, it should run up to the wastegate actuator. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

wtf? is that alfoil on your oil feed line?!?!

Yer i think it is dunno what its doing there it was there when i bought the car looks he has got pirtek or someone to do the oil feed i think. i thought the lil pipe was for water or somthin cause of the green stuff on there i might start using that pipe insted of my long pipe to the plenum.

yep definately goes to the actuator, i just went and checked on my car...

Do all the T3's look the same from the outside?

green stuff is just loc-tite or something man and for the question above , no not really some are slightly smaller , different exhaust housing/dump flanges etc why is that?

well Psi_wagon just said he checked on his car thought if it was the same as his then maybe my turbo isnt from a RB20DET i want to know an exact way i can tell wat turbo i have??

you can run the actuator line from the plenum but its much wiser to run it from the compressor cover.reason being that if you get a boost leak your turbo will make untold amounts of boost and you wont know

ur turbo is definately off a rb20 , the comp cover is different as it has a 3 bolt flange which joins for the outlet pipe to the cooler , actuator is different etc etc etc there are many differences (small ones) like these , but all in all , most t3's are alike

Ok sweet thanks guyz. any 1 got a pic of a T3 from a VLT?

comp and exhaust side of stock vl t3

and again

My Comp side looks bigger yet the exhaust side looks smaller. so this is whats making the difference.
