first of all where soes this hose connects , its the by pass hose but i cant find a place to connect it to
second , is this top hose my oil feed line cuz i was checking on mitsubishi parts and the oem seems to be longer but im not sure is it is the evo one the one that im looking , also the bottom line is my return line and im getting an oem RA oil pan so it should be just plug and play basicly right
heres another view
also whats this it seems to be extremly clean , am i missing a piece or its just like that.
also whats this it came with the kit it seems to be a kind of gasket if im not wrong.
.
and last but not least is my bov soppoust to be so close to my lip or im missing something...

1. that looks like the hose on the exit side of the intercooler. it goes to your throttle body.
2. the first pipe is the water inlet. the second pipe is oil return to the oil pan. you need to buy yourself a water return line and an oil feed line. RA oil pan wont fit, completely different design. you have to do it custom with your existing oil pan. I have my oil pan for sale that has a -10an bung welded in it already if youre interested.
3. dont exactly know what that clean part of the turbo is, but mine has that too. just dont worry about it. there are enough other ports for water and oil feed and return.
4. looks like the compressor outlet to the intercooler piping, but idk how that gasket would fit in there.
5. i dont understand what you mean by close to your lip?
hope this helps. I have 2 sets of injectors for sale also if you are interested. you cant just put on an evo X or RA map and go, it HAS to be a custom tune.
but in all seriousness, you shouldnt be turboing your car if these questions have to be asked....good luck.

now for Carvs' questions:
for oil feed: (see picture below)
This view is basically from the drivers side, looking passenger side, with the intake manifold removed. You can see the intake port with a paper towel in it for reference. This circled set screw is what you take out and use for oil feed. It is (im pretty sure) a 1/2" NPT threading, and uses an 8mm hex key to remove it.
for water feed: That oil feed port is on the passenger side of the engine, there is a water feed port in basically the exact same spot on the drivers side of the engine. Just look for the exact same set screw plug. I dont have a close up pic, this will have to do:
for water return: I cut my lower radiator hose a few inches before it connects to the port on the block, and just used an adapter. Somewhat like this, but with a bung protruding out from it, instead of a threaded hole:
hope this helps both of you guys

also one thing i forgot to mention for both of you (Carvs), if you have the 2.4L engine, you will NOT be able to use the same water feed port that I used, because the 2.4L uses that port for something (idk what, but there is a hose connected there).
what is? lol
