T25 problem

Post by lovelessnator »

Hey guys I just got a t25 turbo an the guy said the standard t2 dump pipe bolts straight up! It does fit but it only bolts to 3 exhaust studs leaving a whole side with out being bolted down! Also when it's on the waste gate can only open a quarter of the way because on the out side of the gate where the circlip holds the acuator rod when it starts to open it hits the dump pipe! Has anyone had this problem? How should I go about doing this?

Also where's the best place to tap into to run some water lines for the turbo?

Cheers

Having put on a T25 myself & using the factory dump pipe, the 3 bolts seal on just fine..The wastegate flap only needs to open enough to let out the excess pressure, so hacing it only open 1/4 of the way for instance is still fine!..But in the mean time I'd be looking for a dump pipe to suit..their usually forsale on here or you can just get one made up locally
