Finally got to work on the car today. I Installed the oil pan, fabbed an oil return hose, mounted the IAT sensor, ran the vacuum tubing, and reinstalled a bunch of stuff I took off when I was installing my clutch and flywheel. I made my return line w/ hydraulic hose and fittings. I started up the car and ran it for awhile. No signs of smoke, oil leaks, or any funny smells. Monday, I'm hoping I'll have time to install the Emanage, all harnesses, E0-1, and injectors. Then, the next day I have time it's off to the exhaust shop for an intake, dumptube and 3 in. exhaust w/ my HKS carbon Ti.
I'll take more pictures and post them early next week.

I did mine by myself in about 12-13 hrs.....that is including gauges too. I had a problem cuz i broke a exhaust bolt in my dowpipe so i had to unbolt the downpipe while still in engine bay and had to cut off the nut and weld a new nut on and use a different bolt.

Your A/C won't be in the way if you take out your windshield washer reservoir. All our A/C's are in the same place. I have to install everything before I can clean anything. Why are you having someone else install your turbo? DO IT YOURSELF.................kids.

It's no problem. I've already started mocking up some of the intake piping. I'm thinking of making it so the filter sits where the Injen RD filter sits. I'll give you a call if I need anything.

Rep Power: 0 My windshield washer reservoir, lines, and squirters have all been removed due to my CF hood and now the IC piping. I keep playing around with the idea of relocating my battery, but as of now, it's staying put.
