Hi all,

Wanted to get people's opinion on how to best/easiest way to do this.

Im using an eboost which is mounted on the turbo side of the engine.

The lines off the solenoid go under the inlet manifold, seemingly into the abyss.

Am i better off using some long nose pliers and reaching under the manifold yo undo the hoses from there or should i remove the whole line around the engine?

Are there any hardline mounting tabs under the manifold?

Iv looked into the workshop manual,the lines dont look like they tee off into the manifold...or am i wrong?

Thanks

You have to run a line from the plenum to the steel hose that runs around the back of engine, I can't remember off the top of my head if it is top or middle hose

If you pull both off the get off one of the wastegate lines at the actuator and get someone to blow into it then feel for which one has air coming out of it and connect to that one

I put my solenoids under the brake boost for less heat and less visibility then run hose from plenum to solenoid then from solenoid to steel line

There is one tab on intake side that has bolt that goes through it then through head and bolts into block, there are three lines ( 2 x air and 1 x water ) that are connected to each other

I will also suggest getting something better then an Eboost

thanks for the response. i ended up having the battery and cooler pipe off the car to create some room.

you can juuuuuuuust see where the hoses connect to the hard lines. managed to get some pliers in there to shift the hose clamp, then i just yanked off the hose.

plugged them up by looping them with some random vac hose i had. havent started the car yet as im doing a few other things before i put it all back together.

i bought the car with an eboost lol, its primitive but it works fine! when i get a haltech ill get a boost control kit too.. im due time.
