k, i'm going to be honest with you guys, i didn't take a lot of pictures during the install...it was kind of a pain in the ***, and it took like 6 hours, i was more focused on having it running by sunrise, than showing you guys every step of how to install a one of a kind homemade turbo kit...i don't have any inside the car videos, while driving, but i'm going to borrow my brother in law's gopro so i can get some good footage for you guys...sorry for the late update, i just put a tank and a half through the car in one day...
here's how the build went (very brief)...
bumper off

exhaust manifold off

turbo and manifold installed

over head view, AEM intake still in naturally aspirated configuration...

intake off

le turbo charger

bov upper pipe mocked up for alignment

almost done
\
done

side view

bumper still off

bottom view driver side

bottom view passenger side, with downpipe

oil scavenge (return)

bumper back on, notice how i was able to retain the stock fog lights?

all done and running by morning...

some videos for you guys, poopy sound quality, but inside the car, the turbo spooling and blow off valve recirculating, are QUITE audible...it sounds really good...

Congrats on the install dude, it must have felt awesome going for that first run. Looking forward to seeing more footage. Wish I could see it in person though, no one around Newfoundland would even attempt to build a kit, especially in a RA.
