Don't reuse crush-washers, oil drain gaskets, or the turbo compressor outlet elbow gasket.

We'll have to break out that service manual, or ask Shane.

Don't bother, he's right :) Just replace those things and you're golden.

Sorry, I forgot...I've only done turbos swaps in real life before rather than reading/posting about it on national forums ;) It's really not difficult guys. You can reuse the large steel gaskets (head/manifold, manifold/turbo, turbo/o2 housing) but everything else you're going to want new. Why? Gaskets are made to seal. How do they seal? They squish.

It may come to that :)
In which case I am taking it to MAP after it breaks in a bit and going to get it running right on their dyno hitting the right load etc and go for the record! Assuming Mike is ok with all this, it would be his paperweight...i mean turbo.

As long as I have a good core when you're done. ;)
