Where is the coolant line bypass on a NAS?
NAs– Skip ahead to the NA Diagram. Run approximately 2 ft of 8mm water hose from the upper port on the driver’s side heater core pipe to the turbo coolant feed, as shown in red below. Be sure to use clamps on the ends of the hoses (if you salvaged the hose clamps from under the plenum, those should work great).
How to remove a coolant line from an intake manifold?
Remove the Intake Manifold. Being careful not to damage the plenum, set it upside-down to gain access to the piping attached to the underside. Remove the 4 x 10mm bolts (Items 1) securing the hard lines to the plenum. Remove the millions of rubber lines (Items 2) connecting to these hard-lines and ports.
How big of a coolant line do I Need?
4 feet of 8mm rubber coolant. 3 feet of 6mm vacuum line (silicone is recommended). 2 feet of 4mm vacuum line (silicone is recommended). 10mm socket & ratchet. Angle grinder, dremel tool, drill are preferable if removing the coolant line ports.
How big is a vacuum line for a coolant canister?
Originally running from the balance tube, through a hard line, and to the carbon canister (indicated in the red outline + green line), we have eliminated this hard line and must now run a vacuum line directly from the balance tube to the carbon canister (new line shown in red). This will be approximately 3 ft in 6mm vacuum hose.
