Hi all, im just wondering where does this pipe go when you convert to a fmic, its the pipe that comes from the lucas boost compensator..
[attachment=4125]
And just on a side note, its a standard turbo, but isnt there 2 they can come with?
Any ideas which this is?..

The pipe should t piece onto any part of the fmic system. Boost compensator pipe by the looks?
As for the turbo I can only tell you its not a T2

Yea, thats the pipe, cheers mate!
Take it its just weld a tab on one of the pipes and shove the boost comp pipe on to it?
On a side note again, is that the pipe u wire a boost gauge too? For future planning.
An cheers sam, it looks a small turbo if that helps.
Not well up on my turbos i must say.

for the boost gauge the easiest way is to put a t-piece in the boost compensation pipe, keeps it nice an tidy

That's a K14. The GT15 uses a different oil line.

K14's are ok, well ok for a standard turbo anyway They can hold pretty good boost.
The black pipe coming from the pump that you have attempted to point out...is the one you need to T piece for a gauge yeah.

just as a side point you want to T into the fmic setup with the boost compensator pipe as close to the intake as possible.
