Need a reliable mechanic in Seattle
Turbo and injectors aren't too hard of an install at all on this car. Everything is right in front of you, just download the service manual and take it step by step and get all the material you need up front - gaskets, coolant, oil, etc! Good luck!
I think you should really install your own parts, especially something as easy as a turbo and injectors.
Its a good idea to be familiar with your car, especially with good tuners so far away.
But that's just me, I just see all these guys around with no knowledge of their own cars, not knowing something as simple as an ISC and what it is or what it does, or a BISS screw.
Now no offense to those that don't know what those are, but simple things like that. Like I said, it's always a good idea to be familiar with your car.

ok. My overflow bottle was filling up after boosting, so I put in ARP head studs last October and have had no issues after install.
Im not doing it my self cuz I have no tools. Plus mechanic ability isn't that high.
My boy Nick finally called me back after having pink eye (lol) And he's going to do the install.
Nick told me to call Aaron @ english and talk to him about flashing the the car so it doesn't have to run a map, and run a 4" intake pipe???
After install I will need a custom Dyno tune from English.
Thanks for the interest on this thread.

OP - realize that you probably won't be driving far or at least well on new injectors. If you can't get someone to flash this for you after install or can't do the flashing yourself, then your best bet is to have someone that can install and tune it. Send Aaron a PM (JohnBradley) or call the shop and I'm sure they'll hook you up!

These aren't the most difficult of installs, FWIW. The most important thing is to have the new injectors tuned.
