I need a picture or a detailed description of which way to bend the stock water lines off my 2g to fit on a 14b swap. I can't seem to figure out which way to bend them. Also, do the lines go back in the same place in the turbo or do I switch their places with each other, then bend them to fit?
Thanks.
 
Switch the front and rear water pipes. Once you do this you can probably visualize which way to bend the pipes. When bending go slow and be careful not to put a kink in them. If you need a longer hose to attach to the pipes use 3/8" fuel line.
 
It seems as if the wastegate actuator arm is in the way along with the brackets that are connected to the lines themselves. Do I go "behind" the wastegate arm or does the line go in front of it? Also, do Ihave to cut off the brackets on the lines because the brackets seem to be getting in the way.
Or can someone just take a picture of theirs? That'd be so easy hah.
 
Attach the water pipes to the turbo before installing it.

You don't need the brackets that are on the pipes, you can remove them if you want.

I don't have my car here to look and I don't recall how I positioned the front pipe to clear the WGA arm. Leave the banjo bolts that attach the pipes a little loose initially so you can angle the pipes for clearance then tighten them up. Sorry I can't be more specific or take a picture since my car is not here.
