I can get you a list of the fittings and stuff. What size wrench fits on the line (at the rack) that runs to the actual pump? Let me know if that makes any sense... Im having a hard time getting to it with my motor still in

Its not really necessary unless you go with a rotated turbo. I had to bend the hard lines to make way for the rotated intake.

We usually make them for our customers using rotated kits.

Skate- there are 2 lines down there one will be a 14mm/17mm combo, the second will be 17mm/19mm. pull the down pipe to make your life easier

The upper one is 17mm the lower one is 14mm. Mine is RHD but i guess it will be the same for you.

is this done solely because of the rotated setup, or does it have the same basic effect as the clutch/brake line?
