Default Need a few pics if you don't mind. Greddy TT owners only.

Can someone take a quick pic of their engine bay with a greddy twin turbo installed. I need one pic of the right side of engine bay. and one pic of the left side of the engine bay where the PS reservoir sits. I just wnana see how the pipes sit cuz im having difficulty with this tight squeeze.

Appreciate it

-Ed

No, its a customers car. The cars all set but the intake pipe to the turbo doesnt seem to be in place right and its a really tight fit. I just want to know if i set that up right.

thanx, who installed yours?

also, anybody have any close pics of the passneger side piping... I want to see how the pipes/power wire/coolant hose to oil warmer are all routed. The way i have it routed, its so tight, everything touches including the intake pipe touching the turbo manifold. I dont think its supposed to touch.

i know about that thread. But it doesnt help too much once the motor is in. I need to see how wires and hoses are routed to prevent everything being sqeezed.

Don't take this the wrong way, but I am curious how you continue to get 'customers' to pay you (assuming you are getting paid and not just helping out buddies) for installs when you are always on here asking for help on how to do them? I'm sure you are great mechanic, it just seems funny I guess. I know I wouldnt offer my services to others if I didnt know 100% what I was doing.

Hopefully, you get the pipes aligned properly. Good luck!

Idk if you have ever worked in a shop but think of it this way. Every tech will run into problems here and there. Those techs then run to the lead techs or foramens with greater experience for assitance. This forum is the lead tech. I come here when i run into problems.

About the customer thing. Customers come where there is great customer service. Random people always message me with questions and such and i help them out if i can and it goes from there. I got another twin turbo install after this one.

I understand where your coming from tho. Everyone wants a mechanic that knows 100% but fact is, no mechanic knows 100%.
