Thanks Link62 might I ask what problems you ran into while installing your kit? I am still a little confused on if I am going to have to grind my turbo or not since I have the speedcorps mani from boostedlancer and Zulu although it will become very apparent when I put it on I guess.

Thanks for clarifying that zulu. Link62 sounds like that wasnt too bad glad to hear it wasnt anything major. I have plenty of air tools and non of my stock exhaust will be reused so no prob there if my impact breaks them ( its got 710 ft Ibs of torque if it doesnt bust it loose than it just busts it lol) My forge unos came today so I officially have everything, man does it feel good to be done with that portion
thats good yea that was another thing my stepdad has all sae tools so i had to run and by metric sockets and wrenches. i just need to get a new bov since i have a stock evo one and i broke the nipple on it but i jb welded it so its fix plus need to get a new bov since i think this one leaks when i go past 5 psi since i keep on turning my hallman mbc up everytime to go past 5psi and i get to the most at is barley 6/7 at wot but its get to 5 just fine

Thats no good do you have the plastic one or the metal one? I mainly work on imports so I have tons of metric but still have plenty of standard. Good thing too cause lately I have been working on alot of domestic rigs. Cant wait to do this but at the same time I am kinda nervous lol. I will probably take 2 days to do my build just because I will double and triple check all my work. One of my buddies that wants to help with my build will not be getting a phone call. Only because he explained to me the last turbo build he helped with lasted about 30 secs first time going into boost BOOM!!! lol dont need any of that I will just show him the finished project
WOW!! I just got my 06 Lancer and this thread is awesome! I have a long ways to go to get a turbo in mine but the plan is the same,... collect, collect, collect,... build,... SMILE!!!
I hope your build turns out!!! i hope you plan on taking lots of pics!
Hey Zulu did they change the Mani at all because on my test ending I cleared the water pipe no problem and I got a 10.5 hotside? Also 03lancer I got the Mani from chele (i believe its the same Mani) and it looked awesome but I had to oblong both the outer holes and the gasket to head did not fit. And I ground on that thing for over 2 hours before giving up and taking it to the shop and drilling it with a mill. Hope yours fits but I though you might want to know a possible hold up. And I’m not trying to knock the part would buy it again knowing it’s awesome!
