Default What to do for installation?

What do you guys think I should do for installation of my FMAX kit? I was thinking of going to a shop, but it'd be like 1200-1400 for turbo, clutch and guages install. I've done some of my own work (i/h/e and sway bar) but am not sure about installing the turbo. The IC and turbo itself I could install, but oil and fuel lines are what kinda scare me. Do you guys think I should just get it done and make sure its done right? OR do part myself and have someone who knows what they're doing do the rest (clutch, oil pan, all tapping and fuel, etc)?

What about tapping the oil pan for the oil return line and oil pressure guage? And tapping the exhaust manifold for EGT? Should I have a pro do it?

Oh, and I'm not doing my clutch either.

(cue dramatic music)

Tom comes flying to the rescue with the know-how, tools, and almost enough time to get 00SilverLS to succumb to the darkside, muhaha.

(end music)

Just get the things we talked about done by a shop, and im sure we can figure the rest out, i mean, it is only *your* car that we'll be playing with, right? hehe

Tom
