So, my turbo recently died on my 2006 MKV (2.0 FSI) gti, oil got into it and it just threw white smoke everywhere when running. I bought a used turbo, supposedly from a 2009 MKV (which I think it's 2.0 TSI) before taking apart the old one, bad idea.
It results that the turbos were not the same, I managed to find connections for all the missing hoses and sensors except for one that is on what I assume is the intake part (opposite to the manifold).
My question is, did turbos change from 2006 to 2009? And, what is the function of the missing pipe?
Here are some photos from the old one and the new one (new is left/up, old is right/down)
