I know replacing all the gaskets are a must, and bolts but do the oil and coolant lines bolt up from each turbo? I was looking today and they look pretty close to each other. I didnt want to buy a whole install kit until I get my FP red so I was just wondering if its possible.

Most of the gaskets are reusable, with the caveat that it is a good idea to have the upper and lower gaskets for the turbo oil drain pipe on hand when you attempt the job...just in case. Every other gasket is usually reusable, IMO (FWIW).

The Evo IX compressor housing J-pipe is a good investment which you can purchase separately at your local dealership's parts counter. The oil and water hardpipes can be slightly tweaked to fit however.
