:wales: My engine is in and nearly ready for firing up but there are a few things left to do, on top of the turbo casing is a t-piece and underneath is a single take off pipe. I've fitted a bleed off valve between one of the top ones and the actuator but am unsure where the other two should go, I spoke to a number of turbo owners at Stanford who hadn't a clue either. Does anybody know? :sad:

:wales: I'm not 100% sure but it's something like 6mm, the engine is an ex-works 1293 and so far nothing seems standard metro turbo on it. Jonspeed built it but must be getting sick of me phoning requesting advice as I didn't buy it through them!

The other side can be blocked. Or you could run a bleed valve from one side of the connection and the actuator from the other like i've done.
