I tried all sorts of ways. Each time I moved or removed a pipe, I held my breath hoping that the silicone 90 ell did not come off. That thing is a mofo!
Anyhoo, Everything is exactly like that picture except that our piece slides into another one. I still don't see how I can gain enough ground clearance to drive safely without a 45 ell. Let me go snap another pic at a further distance to show the whole thing. YzGyz |

The pipe connect the to turbo slides into the pipe on the left (although very difficult and only a little bit) with the silicone coupler on the left.
What size is the ell? I have no idea. Look on the t-band clamps. They have sizes on them. YzGyz Last edited by YzGyz; 03-24-2015 at 11:31 PM. |

I've been away awhile and haven't fully read back yet, but Sasha, are there any V2 kits ready or are you currently taking orders for new kits?

You still need to clock the turbo more, and the smaller diameter pipe needs to slide in to the next pipe (short/second pipe from the turbo). I can see the label on the first pipe, where it says : "slide in to second pipe". Your OEM oxygen sensor harness also needs to be pushed further forward so that it is not over the first charge pipe.

I have pushed the pipe into the 2nd one more. I have not clocked it better yet. The pipe does sit higher but still hangs lower than what I would like. I posted in my build thread. I will have to take things apart and clock it better. (see my build thread)
It's just soo hard to get that darn pipe to slide into the other one. There is very little room (I have no idea how you magically design such a tight fitting kit. kudos). Clocking and tightening the turbo is a pia! I'll see about the o2 sensor harness. thanks YzGyz |

I just finished taking things apart and re-clock the turbo. It us a little better now. I am okay with how she sits now. I would estimate there is about 5/8" space between the pipe comming out of the turbo and transmission. I also took some heat wrap and made a sleeve around the wires in the area. What a pain in the butt. I got caught up in the mess and did not call Up Rev back. I'll call them tomorrow When I get home from work in the morning.
N/m, they are closed Saturday and Sunday. I'll call on Monday since I need to rest before work. YzGyz Last edited by YzGyz; 03-27-2015 at 05:10 PM. |

The turbo should be clocked enough to have the outlet side of that 90 degree silicone coupler almost touching the transmission.
BTW, good job on the install.
