Do it yourself if you have time. It is really not that hard.

you can take your oil pan to any muffler shop and they should be able to weld on the fitting for you. I think about $40. Tools are just screwdrivers, socket wrench and sockets, a drill to make holes to mount the IC. I think that is basically it.

Oh ya get rid of the Deltagate and invest in a Tial

I'd help, but I'm not familiar with the drag kit...I guess it can still be pretty straight forward.

I don't know about the Drag kit but I'd be prepared to shave a little off your block as well so the turbo clears it. Sometimes it's necessary and sometimes it's not.

have it welded, dont use the cheap hoses the kits include. get some good earls steel braided lines. no leaks 4 life get it done right the first time, then you wont have any probs in the future
