I wanted to see if someone could help me identify a bracket I found in my trunk. It looks like my mechanic doesn't know where it goes after he replaced my turbos. I sure hope it isn't a major component.

Thanks!

 

I could be wrong but that looks like one of the intake pipe brackets going to the the turbos.

 

Yep, drev was right.

That connects your turbo inlet pipe to the cylinder head.
And from the looks of it, it is the passenger side.
I'd take it back and make them put it back on. The pipe probably won't slide off the turbo very easily without it but wtf, they should have remembered it, right?

 

I sure would hope so. Does the engine have to be dropped to attach this part?

 

Nope you can probably do it by taking the whole airbox assembly out.

 

how much did he end up charging for replacing your turbos

(which turbos did you get, how much of the price was labor? thanks)

 

He charged me $1000 to get the turbos installed and another $1000 to paint the hood, front bumper, and front fenders.

The turbo rebuilds for the KO4 with 997 Wheels were ~$800 each.

 

dam id just save that 1000 and pull the motor myself
