BURST WATER LINE TO TURBO. HELP!!!!
Ive burst a water line that runs to my gt28rs today. Both lines are T off the IN and OUT pipes to my heater, but the one that has burst is the one on the right which 'ISNT' T off the the heater line with the valve on it. The line that is T off the valve is okay. Could it be the fact that the burst line is at an awkward angle creatind to much tension on the line or does the valve have something to do with this. What is the best way to fix this as i need the car for work tomorrow

what kind of line did you use? Possibly the hose just wasn't rated at a high enough pressure.
When I first put an oil cooler on my car, I did not use high press line like in the power steering, it burst and spewed oil all over the road and I did a 360 and came to a stop, was a little scary but I learned my lesson.
After that, I went and bought 300psi line and use that. It was more expensive but it lastet well over a year until my car got stolen.
Vatozone sells high pressure line, just ask for it.
