Default Pre-assembling parts of a Turbo kit?

First of all, I plan on getting a greddy kit for my D16Y8 motor in my 97 ex coupe....

I dont have anonther car to drive, so I was thinking if there was any parts I could put together in advance.

I already plan on welding my BOV ot the intake piping and using that as a CAI to save some time.

Is there anything else I could put together ahead of time to save me some time on the big day??

Thanks!!!

Assemble the turbo to the manifold and drop it in as a unit. Before you can do that, you should probably make sure your turbo is clocked in the right position. If you have an extra oil pan, do your drain fitting now so you won't have to mess with it on install day.
