puttin a new turbo in my classic 1995 impreza and cant get my hands in to put a clip on the bottom oil pipe..should i put the pipe onto the turbo and lower it onto bottom pipe and will it be easier to get a clip on the bottom as i put rubber pipe on first and lowered turbo onto it but can get my hands in to get a clip on lol..

 

i put the oil drain hose on first, then lower the turbo down on to the hose with a dash of wd40 to aid fitment. the clip isnt really nessasary as it will be only crank pressure inside the pipe

 

kool cheers the turbo and pipes are allon just the klip i cant manage..may cable tie it and keep an eye on it for leaks..tho if it does leek ill soon know as itll drip on the exhaust

 

yes for piece of mind use a cabel tie. there is a fair overlap with the hose and its held between 2 pipes so it wont/ doesnt go anywhere.

 

aye cheers mate ill be out at the car later so itll be running again in a few hours..its the last job so time to fire up and get out a spin again...cheers

 

if its a larger turbo you have fitted dont do any full boost runs as the engine will be running lean. im sure you know that already tho

 

td05..filled turbo with oil cranked it over a few times with crank sensor off just got the interkooler an maf an a few bits to do..damn freezin tho so in for coffee the now..will have it runnoin later..is all new seal in the turbo so ill be takin it easy for a bit at first anyway
