Default Almost done with the turbo install

Well after a very long few days everything is almost done . I would have started it up today , but noticed that i was never sent the fitting to go inot the back of the block for the feed line , so i had to have it ordered again and overnighted so i can try to get it started tommorow .
Man this was a bitch .i think it was more lack of proper tools than anything , I mean we had the mani **** we needed, but little **** kept coming up
I also pretty much totally rewired everything aftermarket in the car. the dipshit who did my gauges way back when did a 1/2 *** job on thm , I had him work on thme while i did something else with the car.. so when i added the new gauges, it was a complete birds nest, its better, but not as clean as i want it yet.
and the resistor box wiring for the injectors, is horrible, i tried to cover it all up with loom , but its about as good as it can get.
But I will post up pics prob tommorow if not tues so yall can see how everything turned out
Im Kinda scared something will go wrong when i try to start it , , i hope not.

WISH ME LUCK GUYS , I hope it was all worth it

thanks guys, yea the piping was a bitch to get to feed to the ic . . . so we cut **** away ugggh, that hurt, then we had to trim down the piping to get to the turbo ,no biggie, one of the bolts was stripped on my cat, so had to cut the bolt , that was a bitch .
the mani thing im concerned about is the return line is like between the downpipe and the charge pipe. i dunno if itas gonna get hot and melt? itas the ss -10 line . its not on the dp , but pretty damn close. everything was tight as hell .

itr449, good luck, remmeber patience is key. i almost lost my cool a few times this weekend.
Well Boosted Hybrid is coming down tomorow to do some street tuning wuith the wideband and the hondata, so hopefullyshe will start without any probs.
