well Im in the process of installing my turbo... the instructions suck... so the piping is a little weird.. please post pictures of your engine bay if you have a TSI turbo kit ( i have the t25bb)

I have about 20 pages in my favorites about the TSI kit... its funny how you only run into them when your not looking for them though (pictures)

any help on the piping or turbo install would be appreciated thanks

its easy.
I dont know who people run into piping problems, but I've got it right very easy. I dont knoe, but may be I'm just genius...
Well, if you'll see, each pipe is numbered, 1, 2, 3, ......Pipe 1 is the one that connects to an rubber elbow pipe that goes to TB, then pipe 2 connects to the other side of pipe 1, then pipe3 to pipe 2 and so on....
pics arent helpful, you wont see anything.
I have few in my gallery if wish to see something..

actually my kit when It arrived did not have the numbers on it but some of them were left on it when I removed it. The piping only fits a certain way with the FMIC installed Hope you get it figured out and my kit does you good man. I 'll see if I can put something together to help out.

hey thanks for the input guys!

the whole kit is on the car... the car is semi driveable....

the only thing I have left to do is put the throttle body spacer with the injectors and the electronics part (basically the whole fuel management setup)

The piping went on with no cutting or modification of the bumper exept that the intercooler isnt directly in the center... it had to be offset a little to the passenger side for the piping to be able to loop around (passenger side)

can anyone post a picture of where/ how they have their BOV? thanks.

the bov can only be mounted in one place, from the TB, it rubber extention connects 1st and 2nd IC pipe.
I did not pay attention, but I think my IC is in the middle, when I look at it, but may be ruller will tell otherwise.
