I am trying to get the accurate indexing on my turbo. There is plenty of room to go either way but I want to make sure its indexed so that I can get all the hoses as they came from the factory.
The idea is to eventually install and airbox setup to work with MAF and use my driver's side NACA duct to get ram air effect to the airbox. I already have the 968 turbo S snorkel fitting that runs flush to the NACA duct.
Any pictures of people's engine compartment that are using airbox setup would help.
Thanks.

I don't have any pics, but to index my turbo, I simply put the intake plumbing in and lined up the turbo so it would match up just right. That's probably a better way to do it than by trying to match up with someone else's photo..

Jeff, my question is that should my ISV hose coming into the intercooler pipe be above the turbo outlet going into the intercooler or below it. The hose snakes all over the place and can be run either way. I am trying to be accurate in routing it. I guess being **** retentive .
Thanks.

Gotcha -- I have that hose running under the turbo outlet. The water pipe on the turbo (with the temp sensor) goes over the top of the turbo outlet, so a hose wouldn't fit there very well.

Hope that helps..

Thanks Jeff, that does help a lot. Thanks for your help.

Here is a shot of my 951. You can see the isv hose running under the intercooler pipe/turbo outlet. I have my catchcan/aos hose running on the other side of the intercooler pipe.

Caster, thanks for the pictures. Is that a factory hose or are you using an aftermarket one.
Also, what kind of protective fabric are you running on your fuel lines and where can I find it.
Thanks.

I fabbed hoses to fit and reroute everything, just bought fuel hose from Napa, etc. The wrap on the fuel lines is thermal exhaust/hose wrap from Jegs.

pic huh,,,



If you'll put the mounting bolts in the turbo, and align the inlet along the same line, you'll be very close.

Thanks Guys. I should be able to route the hoses now.
