I also have the middle pipe here in my engine bay that goes up to the twin turbo pipe via a coupler

No idea mate. John has my HKS kit for evaluation and the rest of the engine is at the tuners. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

all i know is that there are supposed to be 4 pipes, and for some reason there is nearly always one pipe missing from second hand kits.

and stu your kit has the one that simmie is missing

John , what about the pipe in the picture .... this should be in the car ?

my mate reckons that it should be something like this ....

I would have said there should be 4, 1 from the twin turbo pipe down behind the bumper, one behind the bumper joining onto the intercooler, one out or the intercooler, then the one that joins onto the plenum.

Thats all from memory so could be wrong, although I have 2 hardpipes behind the bumper, an 2 rubber in the engine bay, so I should be right!

I have nt bought this kit - I have 33 kit with 4 pipes :cry: which does nt fit

Yes,
Looks like the one that is missing is the one that replaces the original rubber one that goes from the twin turbo pipe to the original steel hard pipe that drops down through the panel to connect to the other rubber pipe that goes to the intercooler on the hot side.
If you get stuck i can get an alloy bend made up with swaged ends ok.
