2G forced performance install kit on a 14b

[awesome]

I'm now setting up my 14b for install and I have the forced performance 16g install kit but I'm not 100% sure where everything goes. Does anyone have a diagram or an actual guide that still has pictures?

This should be a helpful walk-through to install the 14b. Install is the same as the 16g in the article. Your kit is slightly different, but should be self-explanatory when going through the article below:

*the pictures are still there****

I took a look at the kit, and it looks pretty simple.

• The j-pipe comes with the gasket and the two small bolts with washers to connect it to the 14b.
• he two barbed fittings for the drain (straight for turbo side, angles for oil pan), the hose to connect them, a gasket for each side, and two bolts with washers for each side.
• The long ss line is the feed from the oil filter housing to the oil feed on the 14b. the solid 90 degree brass piece goes on the oil filter housing.
• The crush washers are for the water lines on the 14b.
• Lastly, is the metal gasket for the 14b turbo to the exhaust manifold.

Another couple of questions. For the fitting that goes to the oil filter housing I can only get it to rotate twice and then it won't move due to clearance issues is there a way to tighten it more?. Also do I have to put a nipple in the j pipe to connect to the Wastgate or is there another option?

There should be plenty of clearance. You are just trying to install the fitting without the line attached correct? Mine is facing at about 11 o'clock..

Yeah im trying just the fitting. It hits what looks like a ground for the alternator even when I remove that it was hitting.

I ordered one as well, only problems I had was the j pipe hitting the radiator fan guards did you have this issue?

I havent finished up yet. I'm still wondering about the oil feed line plug. It rotated twice but then hits. I'm hoping if I leave it like this it doesn't leak.

Any idea guys?

Clean up that area first. Then, remove the sensor that is in the way so you can tighten the fitting.

is the whole thing removable? when i removed the screw before, the black fitting stood in place.

 

[lasthope05]

Yes the whole thing is removable. That is the oil pressure switch. The black part is the body you need to remove it at the base with a 12pt socket. If you dont have that you can use channel locks. Its not an important sensor.

u were right. it took a huge socket but it was removable
