  1. Are you looking to purchase one? My OBXT got totaled in a hit and run in August last year, I took all of the parts off of it this included. No damage or anything just saved it in case I got another but I went a different direction.
  2. It is not, but it certainly makes it easier. It is possible to cut,unscrew everything needed as long as you are patient. From my experience if you can do it I would. Overall it just makes it cleaner and it's worth the extra effort to remove the plenum instead of the line with the plenum in the way.
  3. Back from the shop who took off my exhaust and replaced my turbo. Got the infamous line installed and it looks great, a little bit pf difficulty getting the dual banjo bolt in with the lines attached. It was just being difficult. I also just routed the ACVS line along the passenger side instead of feeding it under the intake manifold.
  4. @N.Y.X. YOur bottom picture is a little disorienting, but from the top picture it looks the same as it does in my '05 outback. Turbo line, down then turns horizontal then back to vertical going to the oil feed from the heads.
  5. The pictures that you posted of your bay are what I am referring to. http://i1063.photobucket.com/albums/t503/childreth13/20150613_104426_zpsajcqmbw8.jpg http://i1063.photobucket.com/albums/t503/childreth13/20150613_112958_zpsatlih4ms.jpg
  6. From the pictures you posted it looks exactly the same way as it is pictured there. The BB filter from the heads should be along the back passenger side located just under the turbo. There's a little bracket that attaches the turbo to the heads down there and it's right behind that.
  7. You can blow all of the seals by having too much oil pressure. Thanks for posting this, confirmed what I thought basically. I'm still new to engine terminology and especially being under the hood of a Subaru. Like I said before it would be great if you made those instructions for the full kit.
  8. Thanks for all of the info. I'm still having trouble with the longer line though. I found this picture from another thread: http://www.bescaredracing.com/sti/turbo/oil_feed/DSC08093.JPG and the red square is the back of the engine where the turbo is getting it's oil from now. and up front with the orange square is where the instructions tell me to hook up the new line directly to the turbo. From my understanding I am completely taking off that oil line that you see in the picture and I am supposed to put a bolt into the "Oil feed from the head" to block it off. Then the AVCS gets the filter and such to route directly to the turbo. But in the pictures for the full kit and you said the front of the engine I don't see why I need a dual banjo bolt because if it's an entirely separate place then there's not two of the extra lines to use the dual banjo.
  9. I'd love a write up specifically for that kit. I just finally got around to installing mine a week later. I did see this: But I'm still confused. 2005 Outback XT Where does the dual banjo go, directly into the AVCS since we are now skipping the heads? Also I was wondering what I should swap out bolt-wise since I am still on the stock turbo for a little while? I don't want to blow any seals or anything. I have this kit for peace of mind and for the future when I upgrade the turbo.
