turbo

[b00stcreep21]

They're local shops around here. That turbo is NOT going to just "bolt on" to your car in any way, shape, or form. Your "buddy" took you for a ride. Your going to need a new manifold, v-band downpipe and new exhaust, new intake, modify your intercooler piping, get new oil lines.... And that's just to get it on the car. The list of supporting mods that you'll need is even longer.... Do some research first before you get flamed off the face of the planet

This post and the ones suggesting local shops are the best posts in here. Here is what you need to do:

Take the turbo with you and bring the car to one of the local sponsors on the fourms here. Maybe check out a few of them. Maybe a Saturday of it or soemthing. get a feel for the cost associated with making that turbo work and then make a decision on which option will be your best bet. If need be, put the turbo up on ebay ot something and cut your losses and go with a mod plan suggested by a local shop.

I'm locking this down and we obviously have some poeple that can't get it through their skulls that the tech area is the one area we'd like to keep the ethug'n to a minimum.
