yeah i have to install piping and fmu but i still have to tap oil pan and run those lines, i also have boost and egt gauges to run lines for still

 

Oil pan is not too bad. I bought a 3/8" NPT tap from Home Depot for $4. I found a rather wierd, but easy way to take it off. (You'll notice that after the bolts are all off, the RTV will hold it on still and you must find a way to take the pan off without damaging it.) I used a broom stick from the TOP of the motor. Looking down and to the left near the power steering pump area, you will see a small section of the pan sticking out from the engine's front right side. Work the broom handle down there and whale away! Once you jar it loose on that side, you can get under there and pull it right off. Also, you will run into one bolt at the inner front side of the pan that will loosen all the way, but will not come out because the center beam is in the way. Just let it rest on the beam until you take it off, and be sure to put it back on before you start tightening all the bolts.

If you havent looked for a place to run the boost line, look behind the right side strut mount, and you will see a rubber grommet on the firewall. (Engine side) Pop it out with a screw driver and drill a hole in the grommet to run the boost line through.

 

Heres just one pic right now to see if this is working...

ROAD///RACE MOTORSPORTS

with special thanks so far to Rob for bearing with me for months now, Gabe for all the phone help and technical support, and Boni for the EGT.

 

what i would do to get that on my car

 

/agree Im dieing here to get one and have it installed. the only real turbo shop in town quoted me 1k for install this seemed outrageous to me personally sound like a ripoff compared to the work you n your dad did? but its the only real well known shop in town that will dyno tune it and whatnot I dont know jack about tuning it myself and stuff so that part scares me LOL, but yea man im jealous looks GREAT

 

im trying to get a new job so i can go turbo!!!!!!!!

 

i honestly would say that its not worth 1,000 dollars to have it put in by anyone else, i would do it myself unless i lived near road///race, then i would probably pay them to do it, but if it's not them, i'd still be doing it myself. i gotta go to class now but i'll post more this afternoon.
