turbo install.............

i boosted it. over x-mas break in 07 i started the project and was done and tuned within a week

turbo write up
http://myspecv.com/f/t151728-treadstone-turbo-install-no-56k-lots-of-pics.html

i started ordering all the parts and whatnot back in October of '07. the install started the day after xmas in my garage at home with the car up on jackstands. took me about a week going at a moderate pace without rushing anything and doing other stuff here and there so i wasnt working on it all day most of the time. the turbo install was probably the most complicated thing ive done with my car before so i wanted to do everything myself so i knew how to fix anything if something happened.

didnt really go into detail with it. kinda more pics to go along with big j's instructions so i didnt include all the diagrams and whatnot. figured id post it anyway tho

 took out the butterflys. magnetic $5 screw driver ftw. had to use vice grips on a few of them tho since i loctited them over a year ago, they were in there pretty good. took out the actuator as well and bagged everything up if i ever take the turbo off or whatever.  had to plug the vacuum line that went to the actuator as well.
