I just finished my turbo install, followed some pretty dececnt directions, but I'm having trouble and need help. After the install I took my car for a ride, no check lights, engine lights or anything, But the car is really shaky, and when I try to turn left or right, the wheel stiffens up, any Idea

What are some signs that I have installed the kit correctly or some signs that I didn't install correctly.

A little oil did spill, could that be causing the steering prob?

Oil leak should have nothing to do with your steering problem. Did any piece of the turbo kit get near the stearing linkage and bind it up? When you turn left or right, will the wheels turn all the way or does the steering wheel only go so far? If you can elaborate on the car shakiness. Is it shaky at idle and at all speeds or what? Or only at high speeds?

Well I feel dumb, I checked the power steering fluid, and it was empty. I was messing with a hard line next to the ac, and A thick white gas came spuing out. Could that have been the power steering fluid. Or Freon, I don't know I just know I didn't drain the powersteering fluid.

The car is shaky at idle, and a low acceleration?
thanks for you help

That would be freon. Gotta recharge your A/C system now and fix the line if your broke it. Hopefully you didn't because the A/C lines are very expensive.

don't know why the steering fluid is totally empty. Any clues. How much to recharge the ac?
