Yep, doublechecked your photos.. the Buschur battery kit will put the battery right next to the fuse/relay box right over the engine/tranny mount bracket.. You might have to drill two holes for the bolts if its not already there though.

Yeah, I was thinking to get one because I had no other choice, BUT I figure it out that I could build my own custom intake to fit the left over space. I used my old CAI piping and cut it off to make it fit. Just bought a plug at Home Depot and tap it for the bov, and sold that problem . But I'm still planning to get mini battery kit later when I'm going re-do my whole piping (everything is close fit). I just don't have enough money to buy a mini battery kit right now. But thanks for the ideas .

Well, I'll to wait until Monday to get my downpipe cut and weld and might fire her up. I might buy extra manifold gasket incase I'll get a exhaust leak there, that's my only worry .

How many miles did your turbo have on it when you bought it?

I believe it had 6k miles or lower, which is still pretty nice.

Okay I have bad news. Well my brother dropped the bov and the nipple broke two days ago (cheap bov a$$ evo bov ). I thought I could fix it that's why I didn't buy right away, well no luck. Now I am going to make my brother buy a bov tonight and I'll have to wait about 3-4 days to arrive. This sucks a$s because I am all ready for tomorrow to fire this up.

Hey, where did you get your Blox FMU from? I'm piecing together a kit and I haven't been able to find one as cheap as you did ($83).

I got it off from eBay and I was really lucky to find that one because they're usually $89 + s&h.

Btw, which turbo you're going to use?

Be careful, you usually get what you pay for. I don't think I would trust an $80 BOV unless it was proven to work as it's supposed to. Either way, hurry up and finish

Everyone wants to do this custom kit now. Im still waiting to see how it runs first. Because im out to sea right now and I still have a month and a half left out here, so when I get back im slapping this turbo on.
