    hey, its been a while since ive posted any kinda real update..

    with my turbo manifolds and dump pipe nearly finished i need to prepare the little things to get the engine ready for boost

    now i know i need to move the breather off the throttle body to somewhere in the airpipe before the turbo...

    anyone got any other crazy places they put it??

    also i need to pumb the BOV back to somewhere any ideas?? should i plumb it back into the cabin and use it as to blow my hair as i dose past teh chicks???


    where can i find my self some pipe blocks, kinda looks like a finger chopped at hte first knuckle???

    the breather from the rocker cover to the throttle body has to be changed so it goes from the rocker cover to the inlet of the turbo. and then you block off the hose at the throttle body that is what i am doing this week. make sure ya do it. trust me on this one. i had oil pissing out my rear main seal.
    i really don't know where ya plumb back the BOV's. i don't know if they just go back to the inlet of the turbo compressor or the outlet of the turbo compressor.. not really sure
    what do you mean when you say pipe blocks????

    that would probably be the best option, for $2 anyway
