ok im installing my fs635 and the water lines dont fit because the turbo is too big.


do i bend and if so how or is there another way of doing this. i tried searching but couldnt find exaclty what i was looking for.

 

Post some pics of your problems. That would help us understand a bit better.

 

where the water lines connect to the turbo. the casing on the compressor side is to big for the stock ones to fit in there.

buschur's site says it uses stock water lines but i dont see how thats possible we have tried every angle. and still no joy. i read a thread you had to bend them or something.

before anyone says call them. there closed right now and wanted to get this done tonight.

 

I would suggest ss lines if your having problems installing the lines. I wouldn't suggest bending the lines but you can try and hopefully wont kink/break/or crack.

 

i was thinking same thing but buschur's sites says uses factory lines. just trying to figure out how thats possible.

 

Would heating up the lines to bend them be a bad idea? That would allow more flex when you bend them but not sure if it would weaken the line down too much.

 

if i were you id call buschur and tell them. they were alot of help to me when i put in my fp red. i know you wanna get it done tonight, but you want it to be done right.

 

"Do it once, do it right"

 

theres tons of people who have these kits so someone has to have a solution.

 

anyone?

 

yes, you can bend the stock water lines but just be careful not to create any kinks when you bend them. if you have a vice, or access to one; it makes bending them easy. other then that, put some muscle into it and get creative. good luck!

 

Out of curiosity what is the ID of the Coolant lines? or the OD of the outlet for the coolant feed?
