I plan on buying the same set next year. Did you find any good detailed instructions to use for the assembly and evo install as I’m looking for some.

Finally drove mine to work. Only been a year since that has happened. Might have a slight leak on the turbo feed cause it was smoking off the turbo when I parked it. Or it might just still be burning off oil since it was the first real drive after doing the head rebuild.

I had a puff of smoke coming from under my hood for about a year. It would happen any time I'd drive the car hard; on and off throttle. I changed out the PCV/vacuum lines/et so many times until I found out it was a loose turbo feed line

Haha nice! When I drove it to pick up food for lunch it was all good. We will see what happens on the way home up the mountain. That should get it nice and hot. If it starts smoking again, I am going to check the feed line. Easy enough!

Just teasing. It's in inside joke with my friends. I sent you a PM. You are saying you can't even READ them? It's so frustrating when new accounts are restricted.
