Do it right use periods....
On a more serious note, its probably gonna run better if you hook the ic pipes up and some sort of fuel managment (do an fmu I dont care)
Hmmmmm a turbo ploped in the middle of what appears to be an na cars exhaust and a disconected map sensor. Are you trying to get it to run right? Convert it back to stock and get it to run right and then think about putting your turbo stuff on.

that is why i havent hooked up the intercooler pipes yet cause im trying to get it to run right, i heard the motor run at teh yard so i know it was good it was just easier to hook up all the oil adn water lines w the motor out then after i put it in. my next step is to put the headers i had back on there but i know it is something stupid thanx for the help so far guys
