    Hello guys this is my first post so please bare with me. I recently bought a turbonetics kit off racing junk and beginning to piece together some of the required parts. Most of their kit is self explanatory, but I am only confused with one part. It says i need 2 52" water lines to attach to the turbo. I know they use 16mm banjo bolts to attach to the turbo, but im not sure what lines to buy? please help!!

    Why don't you call Turbonetics and ask them what you need?

    They quoted me $370+ for a pack of rubber hoses and I said that was ridiculous

    You should be able to get banjo fittings with hose barbs on them.

    Ok thanks guys, I'm also missing 2 pipes for the kit and turbonetics is quoting me $1100 for the two. They are: the pipe that goes from the cats and curve back towards the turbo, and the second goes and connects the after turbo pipe back to the factory exhaust. Does anybody know how much a muffler shop would usually charge for those pipes ?

    Lol nowhere near $1100. I wouldn't go to your average muffler shop for that. You're better off taking it to a performance shop that will do a good job with mandrel bends. Probably $2-350, depending on the mood they're in.
