I am starting a new turbo build. I have a t04e turbo, and I'm buying other parts to go along with the build. I was reading snowmans build and I noticed that his turbo has nipple in the front that has the boost refrence line from the fuel pump. I don't have this on my turbo and I was wondering where would I run my boost refrence line to the fuel pump, since I don't have the oney for a boost timing master.

Do I run the line from the modified fuel pump to the output side of the carb or the turbo?

From my understanding it could be either, it's just to detect the pressure people put then somewhere on the turbo piping from the turbo to the carb pretty commonly I believe.

You need to read a book.

x2. We were all new to this at some point and need help along the way, but please do some research, it will help you in the end. These builds are not your, off the shelf, bolt on's.

Good Luck

Spend a few hours reading this section. Bookmark pages and take notes. You can boost reference anywhere post turbo, some do it from the charge piping, some do it from the carb. Oil feed comes from oil psi fitting on the pass side of block. Addba T fitting and install a oil psi gauge in that spot also.

Best of luck.
