Default Wanted: Pics of Turbonetics Overboost Pipe

I'm going to be installing this kit next month. I already have the kit and been going threw the instructions pretty well and have all ready started on somethings. But they don't show anything about the overboost pipe setup.

I like to have pics of the overboost pipe to see how it is setup. I have a good idea of what's post to happen. Just want to have a pic. No rush though. But also not sure what you do with the pipe that has a bellowed end, since your moving the wastegate.

So is this thing called an "overboost pipe" or a "wastegate relocation pipe"? I always referred to it as the latter.

Same thing I guess. It is a wastegate relocation pipe and an overboost correction pipe as well.

I'm finally getting around to doing my installation and I wanted to check these pics again to see if my setup is the same. I'm having a problem with the bolts TN supplies for the wastegate. Looks like yours are hexkey and the new location is threaded so they thread into that with a lockwasher. I got 8mm bolts with washers, lockwashers, and nuts. The bolts are too short. I can't get the nut started with all of the hardware. With only the lockwasher I can almost get the bolt flush with the outside of the nut when it's tightened down.

Anyone else have this problem? I don't think I want to keep it like this. I guess I'll have to get some longer bolts.

I think I had the same problem when I installed my kit. Just run to a hardware store an get some bolts that are long enough and can withstand that heat/ pressure.
