Does anyone have pics of the intake piping on the hot side? I have looked and cannot find anywhere. I am having a particularly difficult time determining the turbo orientation and wastegate actuator location. They seem to be in conflict on alignment. A pic of a completed car would be worth a thousand words.

 

I clocked so the oil lines were at 12 (and 6). So straight up and down.

The blue elbow in mine has a slight kink in it due to the bend angle. Get that oil feed line straight up and snap another pic.

I had to bend and manipulate the bracket for the Wastegate Actuator a bit

 

Here's a couple pics from my 01's MK install. Nevermind the sloppy wiring and hoses, it kinda works.

Pipe coming up from factory hole, behind the headlight. Jammed some cut radiator hose around the pipe that goes through the hole. Held on with circle clamps underneath.






The piping from behind the headlight to the turbo. I know the fitting in the silicone hose isn't "right" but it was one of those days.







Wastegate Actuator. It's pushed, but not to it's limit, to the left, in order to fit, with out binding.








Back of the actuator. I had to take it apart and rotate it 90 degrees so everything would line up.





I'll leave the shock brace and heat shield off for a few days. If you need any other pictures, just holler.

 

Awesome! Thanks. Looks like you moved the wastegate bracket around one screw.

 

Yes, rotated it half a turn.
