meh i dont mind if its messy- as long as it all works haha. it'll get a cleanup tho. i didnt think about the pump going dry but i did test it with the out let hose off and it chugs out plenty of water so it should be ok.

if i hadnt of rotated my compressor housing on the turbo i would of done what you did with the rs bov but now i have to work with this setup. its proving a little tricky to get this bov on. i also have an air hose that comes from the back of the thermo stat that was in my intake piping before, and also a sensor. car seems to run fine without them but i should prolly put them in.

The pipe to the top of the thermostat is for the Aux Air valve, fast idle on cold startup thingy. Dunno what sensor though.

I thought you had a TD04, which normally has its compressor outlet facing right and will work (pipewise) the same as mine allowing you to fit the RS BOV

ah ok ill have to hook that random hose back on.

the td04 did fit like yours until i rotated the compressor housing- that way it would work with my existing intercooler setup. its a bit of a bitch to do so i wont change it back. its ok tho that side of the hoses fits good

I had the same problem, i tried to fit it in there, but where i could make it fit physically, the piping didnt work out, so i gave up and mounted it in the engine bay.

If i had have pulled off my passenger guard, it would have made 'in guard' mounting easier, but i didnt think it was worth the hassle, especially if i have to take it out again if the bearings need replacing

ive heard the bearings inside are cheap and easy to replace?
