    sorry its not the pump but its a silver canister almost with the same air lines that run into the pump its to the right of the block inbetween the CTS and the firewall

        Damn 1.8T's and your easy coolant solutions. I had a leak at the cts housing and the water "crack" pipe. Car was out for 4 days.

        Glad you found the issue!

            If your noticing oil chances are its the valve cover and cam tensioner seal , like said above . I've got the tensioner tool and done it enough times I could help you out. Also you should ditch the Sai system and Evap etc, since you wanna go big turbo you'll wanna ditch it all and add a catch can

              hey just fixed her up, rubber o ring appeared descent but the metal coating on the inside was cracked and chipped and under pressure was leaking, yah when i have the engine out it will be 10 times easier to ditch the sai and evap so ill wait to do that but yah if you could help me with the cam tensioner seal thatd be great
