looks like you got a lot of room to work around with in that bay

Hope you have the same luck he has.

Also watch for boost spike, it can be equally as dangerous. On my first wastegate, I believe there was a small rip in the diaphragm which always caused it to spike until I took it apart and discovered the problem.

strange. I would have thought a rip would cause more of a boost drop than anything. Spiking pressure would definitely be as bad, if not worse.

Received new stuff today, the good stuff is starting to come in!

HKS SSQV Blow Off Valve:









OBX Wastegate:









AEM UEGO Wideband Gauge:

lol time to get to work

Cant get boostin without a turbocharger lol.

The turbo, downpipe, intercooler, piping, silicone couplers, clamps, etc are all in the mail right now as im eagerly awaiting their arrival.

Pics when they arrive!

you can still install the gauge yo!

More stuff yet again!

Piping kit with couplers and clamps:




Oil feed kit with drain flange and oil pan bung:




Intercooler:




Downpipe:





I also have various seals and gaskets with the kit and some bolts and nuts.

For some reason i got everything i ordered except the turbocharger, they sent it in a seperate package, which means i will have to pay import duty charges again for the turbo that could have been shipped with this stuff... I dont get it

very nice

i need that 6 speed tranny

Maybe due to weight.... turbos are fairly heavy.

Lookin good so far... that downpipe will definitely need some modifications, especially if you have AC.
