Turbo connections
Turbo Mini Forums

Hi, I had a quick search but had no luck finding what I needed.

I was connecting up the turbo today and there are two pipes I don't know where to connect.

First is a rubber pipe coming from what I think is the actuator (black thing that looks like a dump valve).

Second is a metal pipe coming from a banjo just next to the air take off pipe, this one seems to have been cut off near the clutch housing.

Thanks

Tony

Hi,
The rubber pipe from the actuator goes to the brass fitting on the compressor housing.
The metal pipe you're talking about, I think is the oil feed pipe. Best to get a new braided hose from Avonbar and fit that .
Cheers,
Gavin :)

£65 seems ridiculously priced for a pipe. Is there any cheaper options out there?

Hi,
Well I got mine made for my GT1752 at my local motorsport place, for £18, plus a tee piece from Minispares.
Cheers,
