have any of you installed a turbo yourself? is it hard, i've already read and looked at that overboost.com site...but i was wonderin' if anyone would be willin' to help me out when i get my turbo kit...or would it be better to have a professional do the install. if so where is a good place and how much would it cost to have them install it?

 

around here is mostly around 500-700 for installation, but it's pretty easy IMO, I did mine with arturbo and Dirpe972 in two days

 

give Dynamic autosports a call 949-457-1234
they do great installs on drag kits

 

Do it yourself, I am in So Kali, I can help you out if your not to far from UCI. Just hit me up on aim at elusiveacclude or email me at acclude@mediaone.net

 

ill help you ot,i dont know that much but ill help you.
!!!MAKE SURE YOU HAVE AIR TOOLS!!!
cuse it will make it easier for all of us

i live in santa ana and i chill in fv,so i down to help

 

tell me what day and if i can make it i'll bring my air compressor

 

alrite..cool thanx for all the replies and help offered...right now i'm tring to get the turbo kit and make sure everything is included...so i'll let all of you know when i get everything...hopefully soon.

 

I may not be living in the so. cali are as of this moment, but I'm definitely from that area. Just some words of advice KLN, confidence and time, and treat yourself with a 6-pack of Corona once you finish the installation. Take your time so it can be done right the first time, and everything should go smoothly. If you can lower your own car and have an extra pair of hands too help you, then you should be fine. Me and my friend banged it out in 2 days

 

well what kit are you getting? i've only done my own fmax kit and thats w/o the head gasket option. cant imagine the other kits being much different, save the fuel setup.

 

well if u get a drag kit there might be a chance of having to shave the block

 

Grinding the block isnt that big of a deal tho...unless you dont have a grinder hehe.

 

i live in orange and i did my turbo install myself, along with the help with a couple buddies. easy stuff. you will gain some knowledge shaving the block isn't too big of a deal.
