There are 2 metal pipes one is a half moon shape single pipe need to know where it bolts onto I think its gearbox side? The other has 2 heatshields and has about 6 pipes all small in diameter which i think locates on the inlet manifold but could be wrong?

thanks

Well the top picture (half moon one as you call it) fits as you know on to the inlet manifold and you have the water pipes from the throttle body going to it and also a breather pipe. They then link in to the hard metal pipes that run by the side of your block that sits just above the gearbox. Which if you also follow feeds into the turbo (if you are still using the standard unit) but also join up to the main water way by the thermostat. As for the breather that links into the pipe that sits right next to your dizzy cap and runs across to your inlet s shape pipe that fits onto your turbo.

The other one i have found the pipe it fits to but can't find where it is located/bolts to. Can't remember the exact pipe so will check tomorrow in the light and post back up for you.

And as for the BGB it's crap as i struggled with it on the water system too :(

hth dude :thumleft:

Hi the single pipe looks like the one that bolts to the top two gearbox bolts that holds the box to the block. regards Steve
