TAKING ORDERS for winter 2017 turbo kits

Does anyone have any tips or good photos of how they kept the wastegate vacuum lines/transmission harness away from the turbo manifold? Pretty sure everything got rearranged when I brought my car to the shop to replace the clutch. I was going to buy a fire sleeve for the vacuum lines but I don't think 500* of protection will help with direct contact on the turbo manifold.

This is how I popped my motor. When I reinstalled I basically controlled the slack from where the line tees over the transmission. I have enough distance but I also used lava tube heat shielding but it does more to soothe my hurt feelings than anything. Up front from the engine bay its sleeved for about 3 ft. Sounds simple enough but following the install instructions to a tee saves some headaches. I found out 1 burned granny harness and one popped motor into the club. I like to call those "Stupid taxes". They're expensive but you won't pay twice. ( unless you're in the "Real stupid" bracket.

I ran my 350Z (same kit configuration as VHR), ran all the hoses upwards from the wastegates. Never had any issues at all, as everything was a fair distance from any hot surface. Nothing was ever heat wrapped.


I'll have a few heat shields in stock in a couple of weeks.

I was using some DEI heat sheaths for the vacuum lines. I should have wrapped or ceramic coated the turbo manifold. I even bought the heat wrap but I never got around to doing it. Big mistake.

I moved my transmission harness as far away as I could from the manifold. What kind of symtpoms were you showing before and when it failed? My brake light comes on under acceleration and a couple times my traction control light and yaw sensor light came on. Everyone seems to think it's low brake fluid but that's not the case. I think it may be the heat being generated by the turbo and it's proximity to the harness line. Did you have any of these issues when your harness failed?

My harness was my fault. The instructions tell you to raise it up , I just did'nt raise it far enough. First a few lights came on then everything on the dash quit working and it shut down. When faced with a new harness cost I just spliced the wires.

Use a ton of zip ties to keep everything out of the way. I used thermotec heat sleeve for all vacuum lines. I also header wrapped the turbo manifold to prevent those heat issues. Check my build thread link and there’s probably some pictures of the underside.
