Re: Heater line making contact with turbo pipe.
So the turbo air inlet is almost touching the heater hose? Is that with or without anything on the inlet as far as air filter or anything? I'm assuming that's with nothing since you ordered a Cobra elbow. You can always do what I did, I bought a 2000 S10 Xtreme radiator, cut the two big alignment pieces off on te bottom and bolted it in. It doesn't have the heater core connection on it. My water pump had a plug on the back side of it, it put a nipple on it and used that instead.

Re: Heater line making contact with turbo pipe.
I had the care motor installed by a local shop and noticed a few things that I'd done a little different. One thing I noticed was the heater line almost pinched by the TiVo pipe. I ordered the CAI kit and now it's even more of a restriction. I did notic other vehicles that routed that same heater line to the water pump like you describe. I'm hoping the cobra elbow will have the necessary clearance. Thanks for the input.

Re: Heater line making contact with turbo pipe.
Removed the heat exchanger next to throttle body and seen there was 2 PCV valves on the same side. My question is with the RPM cold air intake, can we get away with just using one PCV valve? The kit comes with a small breather which goes in the drivers side correct? Also does anyone have a part number for that grommet that fits in the valve cover holding the PVC valve itself? Thank you for any help.

Re: Heater line making contact with turbo pipe.
You have to use both. One is used during normal driving, the other is used under boost.

The back one goes to the throttle body, the front one goes to the turbo inlet piping.
