I am almost finished installing Wil's turbo kit- and thought I would post a link to some pictures of the install so far.

I have new Volk wheels ready to go on and my rear 02 valence just arrived- stacy skirts coming soon.

Wow Rich , this is some really great work , nice clean install and thanks for posting the pics!

Looks real good man. How long did it take you to put it together?

I know that Rich is taking his time since he does not have time to do it all at once and he is not in a rush , but install time should be approx. 4-6 hours for the turbo kit itself , not including electronics - I have designed this kit to be very easy to install.

Not really keeping track.

I spent more time on the oil pan/header than anything else- which was not required for this.

I think it could be a weekend project if you did not fool with the SS lines and ran the electronics simply- I have every wire in either a vacuum hose or wire loom- takes longer but the results are good.

coming!

i am having a bung welded onto the upper charge pipe to hold the meth jet- I messed up the tap and should have it back thursday.

here are a few more- I have a "Fake" upper charge pipe on and started the car on the stands to check oil connections/electronics etc. Everything is running fine- once I get the chargepipe back I will be ready for tuning!!!!!

Random unrelated question.. do you find that textured flooring to be annoying? I keep thinking I wouldn't like trying to roll around on that stuff on a creeper.

Normally I keep three cars in the garage- they live on the black textured mats which are surrounded by the black/white tile- mainly smooth

does not bother me - but i do not use a creeper.

On the other hand my lake house has stained concrete and I really like that finish- but its harder if you you crawling around on your knees or lying on your back

When is it?

I think around august they should have one. I will let you know when.
