Re: my corsa-c c20let conversion

The one way valve it just above and to the right of the oil cap there, should be plumbed in so that when the car is on boost it wont blow into the rocker cover

Re: my corsa-c c20let conversion

2 pipes on heater matrix: one goes to the end of the cylinder head and one goes to the big plastic pipe that goes to the back of the water pump.

Pipe at the bottom of the header tank also goes to this big plastic pipe from the bottom of the water pump.

You will need a tank vent vale to keep the ECU happy but I kept the Corsa B one with mine and left it plumbed in the same, not sure about the corsa C though

Re: my corsa-c c20let conversion

I think on the vacuum side you have
1) fuel pressure regulator Via hot start valve
2) ECU pipe
3) fuel tank vent valve

If you have any of these T'd into the same pipe then just blank off the spare pipe

Re: my corsa-c c20let conversion

Im not sure what they are to be honest, they were already conected when I put my engine in. You need to look up how the corsa C tank vent system works, You should plug a tank vent valve into the LET loom to keep the ECU happy even if you dont pup pipes to it. I know of some people who have done this and just left the pipe to the charcoal cannister open, not sure if you could smell fuel in the summer though
