the turbo has 2 (TWO) Gaskets in between it and the DP, that can't be good .

I thought that it was going to be easy to get going on this car since i had one before and a full transplant on my Monte, but today i opened the hood and i was like "duhhhh"
Anyway
First things first
That big relay on the right side (driver side) gets pulled and dumped with NO other action right?
thats the one that turns on the engine cooling fan and kills the battery wile the car is off.

Also the turbo has a precision exhaust housing, If i remember correctly an OE garret housing would help in the spool-up department.

good question, i am going to put plates on this thing this week and test it out a zero psi to see how it does, i know its not an accurate test but it should be ballparkish.

Slide underneath it and grab some numbers off it...and maybe a pic or two. We might be able to nail it down.

that pipe is there holding the "Bent" AC line in its new (OE) position so that it doesn't crush the filter again.

a bunch of wires at the battery, my guess is that these wires were relocated from the starter to the battery.
I like the idea but not they way it was done.

Ground relocation????
the ground strap from the intake to the body is pretty chewed up and not too healthy looking.   

This isn't OE on the car??
