DIY -- Installing SF Turbo kit

024drlx · 06-11-2003

im lost, i use a oil drain plug that i purchase at walmart. i wonder if it can solve the problem instead of drilling a hole. it is called sd2 from fram the company who makes it and its an adapter that replaces your bolt. there is a cap to cover as well. (sort of like a tire pressure thingy). we can take the cap of screw a line to that oil adapter and to whatever. just trying to help don't flame!!!! i can be wrong

http://www.fram.com/index.html go under products and scroll down.

its called FRAM® SureDRAIN™ Fast Access Oil Change System

No, you cannot use those products. The oil drain line must be under the turbo, yet above the oil line in the hood. sorry guys, but there has to be some mods to go fast.

Catalyst · 06-13-2003

thanks a lot. I have 53 more pictures, so the real instructions are gonna be in depth. I may post the entire regular instructions as a DIY, but i dont know how Derek would like that. lol

I think i am going to limit myself to about 15 pictures for the DIY. I have some more chosen to update with, so i will post them later tonight.

you can get it from the group buy section of this website, and it is $2900. It is the Stafford Fabrications Turbo Kit.

Is that greenish T fitting allready on the car or is that the one you added?

I thought there was no welding going to be required for this. Mike should have an option to buy the pan pre-welded and then you send him your old one.

I will talk to him about that.

Isn't the EX pan more difficult to weld into... and find a spot to weld. It has more baffles in it, and it's aluminum I think. I don't know shit about welding really, but I thought you can't just regularly weld into aluminum.
