craggsy 91 Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Surely you can just turn it thru 180 degrees to face other way so not foul the chassis Link to post Share on other sites
cabrioman 6 Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 dont really want the turn it as you want the return to flow down not up and then down again ..... what paul said should work best if not adjust the leg with a BIG hammer ..... Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 0 Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 I'm pretty sure that for V1-V3 chargers you have to cut a hole in the chassis leg for the return hose. Link to post Share on other sites

v6horse 1 Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 Im running a v2 charger , had to drill a hole in the chassis leg . simple to do and you can get it nice and clean if you line it up nice the first time . Dont forget to leave room for some movement for when you tension the belt . I made that mistake and had to make the hole wider for it to clear when tensioning the belt .
