He's probably wondering how to hook it up to the turbo or something. Where does the vaccuum line and what not go. But alas . . . . . I have no answers.

i think you tee it off at the starter and run it back to the finigan pin, so it don't get moisture in it andd ruin the muffler bearings

Kinda irrelevant if you have Blitz turbo bearings like I do.

It isn't very difficult. Here is a how-to article (also explains an A/F gauge install) that should be helpful: http://www.superstreetonline.c....html
