Do NOT attempt to hook up the steering linkage until everything is bolted up except the downpipe from the turbo.

You need to slide the rear downpipe up over the kmember, then bolt up the steering linkage. Then you can connect the downpipe from the turbo to the other downpipe.
Will do. Atleast now I have some direction I have to get some more wrap before I can continue.

I got the crossover mounted yesterday and got the feed line fed through.




Relocation bracket should be arriving shortly along with the fans and radiator. I still need to sell this turbo

Got some more stuff done. The alternator relocation kit came in, got that installed. Radiator came in, got it cut out and made the bottom retaining brackets. The zip ties are not permanent

I got the radiator mounted, fans mounted and wired up, and got one of the ps lines ran. I have to wait until I get the dp in to see where I'm going to route the other line.

Got them all from here. I'm not sure, but when I was dropping my k member they held up the rotor and a arm. So they must be alright.

It's been a while since I posted. I got some done. I got the coil relocation brackets mounted, turbo mounted, all the hot parts on, and got the gauges hooked up. I also picked up a new hood. Hopefully I'll get quite a bit done this weekend. It was the wifes birthday last weekend so I didnt do anything.

I go to the nuke school and I get up at 5 and get home around 4. No real daylight to do the work until the weekend. Did you do a 2 bar setup or do you still have your maf and stock map?
