thats the big mama turbo from garett. T3/T4 OE TUrbo. It depends. If it is relatively small, no. I really didnt have to shave it.... I looked after install, it doesn't go into the shaved portion ..... but oh well..... ANy answers to the previous question? ^^^

I did, but the block shaving helped..... It helped have enough room to where I could positiion the turbo and then pull it up...... But it isnt sitting in the spot I chopped out....

Here is a picture of my $60 Autozone fan. Very powerful, slim, and cheap!!!



I am also putting one on my AC condensor. I will have more pictures later once we are done putting everything on.

turbo is still not operational...... My FMIC hung too low and going up my drive way it scraped and kinda pulled it down..... Its fine, but I need to get it cosmetically fixed.... But for some reason the car isnt boosting ..... this was before the FMIC accident..... Does the car need to be pusshed hard to boost? or can I gradually take it up into boost?

Ouch, sorry to hear bout that. Does it hang lower than your Front Bumper or what. As for not boosting. Check all your lines and make sure that hooked up right. Go over everythign again.

yeah came WAY Below the bumper. I think its fine tho, just the top row came down. Gonna take it to shop to get fixed and then sell it to get a smaller one


EDIT: you guys think its OK to boost without intercooler for about a month or so until I can get it fixed and sell it?
