I broke the Elbow on the SAI
Hello everyone,
I was doing a turbo swap this weekend when I broke the 90 degree elbow that connect the SAI pump return line to the line that goes ehind the engine. I went to autozone they dont have it so I put a piece of rubber tubing on it temporarily. I know it wont hold and it may be hendering my engine. It's a hard plastic elbow that sits right to the left of the heat shield above the tubo.. Does anyone know where I can get thispart or a part number?.

Its just the line for the Secondary Air Injection, Its actually just the suction from the air box, so it receives filtered air. It has no pressure. It can be disconnected and a small filter element attached to it. It only needs fresh filtered air. Really, just what you did is fine, and is common practice when the brittle bastards break. They are cheap. Type the part number that's on it in Google and you will find it for sale.
