If you can install a CAI, you can install a GReddy turbo kit. Only difficult part (or part I didn't do myself) was tapping the pan for the return.

Turbo kit install is not hard if you follow directions and have a couple friends handy, but i wouldn't exactly compare it to installing an intake. My girlfriend could install an intake

Anyhow to original poster, just do a search on the site and you'll find detailed instruction, possibly pictures to help you. There was a good thread on installing a drag kit with detailed pictures from start to finish. Like the other guys said it's not difficult, there is just quite a few parts, it's somewhat time comsuming, but take into consideration that a turbo install is something you don't want to rush or half ***

my gf helped me install my turbo. its looks a lot harder then it is. little advise, only loosely put the bolts on the turbo to manifold before hooking up the dp. took me 2 hours to get my dp on the very first time, took me 5 mins the second.
