chris, how do u learn to do all this stuff urself? im 17 and all i kno how to do is snap on stuff and change my oil

[Onemanzu]

its not to hard... its all bolt on right now...

just swap everything out... get some jacks and shit... then slap the turbo on... run an oil feed to it... and then everything is good... drive it up to the tuner... and wa-lla

i deffinitly dont learn it myself
with the helpp of this site
my dad
and reading really help
the absolute biggest help of all is PERSONAL experience.
you can be taught how to have sex with a girl good. but when you get in bed and realize its not like you thought...over time and experience you get better.

also tech articles are a good help
another reason why i made this thread.


other people i'll thank on this site that i feel i've learned something from
232mustang
cricket
SSStang-AIM ftw
AB
turp
onemazu


most these people like, AB, cricket, turp, 232 you dont see on here anymore
instead people like me, SSS, onemazu have come to help
and others i dont remember



WL and MZ....not to be a dick but dont fill this thread with stuff not related to much plz

[Onemanzu]

well thanks for butchering my name

OMZ for the win... so you never answered my q? when do the hair dryers get in and what kind did you get?

[itschristorres8]

and yea the turbo kit isnt to hard to install
mostly time consuming

only thing that isnt bolt on is 1/2 tap in the oil pan..
and i believe the mounts that i'll have to make for the intercooler.


simple instructions
remove all objects inway...plug wires, old intake, EGR

- remove headers and exhaust
- put on turbo headers
- connect pipe which the turbine and turbo will lay upon
- mount turbo and turbine
- fit and run all the intercooler pipes
- attach intercooler
- relocate Mass air sensor on new intake housing
- 1/2 tap in oil pan
- run oil lines to the turbo
- put on BOV and waste gate
- put everything back double check then start your engine

i gotta get the money on a money order or cashiers check
send it to andy then get my other shit

SC40 turbo
similar to a pt57 turbo
its rated up to 550rwhp just like the waste gate

these are not permant parts...they'll be on for about a year or more.
then replaced with a pt67 and 42mm waste gate once i get around to buying the 4.2L

[Onemanzu]

damn you... i feel like robbing a bank now... uhg FUCK!

[itschristorres8]

lol im not exactly rolling in money
im working my fuckin ass off for it

also forgot to say i'll be at 4psi til i can buy an 8.8 rear with the axles and posi i want as well as money for the ba3000 MAF housing that im gonna buy from vmp when i go up there to have that messed with as well.

[Onemanzu]
