Installing FP BLACK, TO DO LIST???
Wow, this went from a one day job to a couple. Sorry to hear that.
Whenever I do a turbo swap I spray the crap out of the nuts and have at least one extra stud and nut, just incase one snaps. Heck , my first ever swap,I bought almost every new nut and bolt just so I didn't have to worry.
Good Luck. If you need an extra hand let me know.

WARNING- If you do not use heat, you will round the edges and make it impossible to remove!
WARNING- If you ignore this instruction and put your 1/2 inch air gun on it, you are screwed!
Clean threads, apply thread sealer to provided 3/8 inch BSPT to 1/4 inch male JIC (-4 AN) adapter, and screw into housing, use approximately 35-40 lbs/ft torque.
taken from the directions, i got the fp oil line used and assembled but i didnt get the plug for the head or the adapter... dont know why.

The bolt in the head is a M10x1.25 thread pitch bolt. I bought a 30mm long bolt and cut it down to be about 8mm long. You dont want a longer bolt going into the head and potentially restricting or blocking flow.

The install is done, the cranking of the engine before starting is done the car starts warms up with no leaks at all except for the headers smoking due to the WD-40 i used to get the bolts loose but i seem to be smoking from the radiator? its full though?
Do yourself a favor and keep the tune VERY safe.. I had 458torque, and blew a rod thru the front and back of the block. So id start a small side-savings for a built block.



Everything looks perfect... Time to go get tuned!!!!
