If you have a bolt on kit just get a picture of any turbo car and see how it goes. If you have to fab stuff then your going to need some fab/pipe skills that paper wont show you.

Why would you give someone props for being lazy and not searching the numerous threads on here that give step by step directions on how to install turbo's on many different set ups? SEARCH is your friend.

trial and error.. all you need is a turbo kit and some elbow greese..
my first project was like that.. you need 3 bar map, oil feed and return, hoses, fittings, intercooler, charge pipe, rubber connecters and clamps, manifold, turbo, tap your oil pan, get T fitting for oil sending unit, from back of your block on oil filter, need neptune tuning (my choice) boost gauge and a/f guage, 450cc injectors or bigger depending on your setup, and time..

I bet you blow your motor within' 6 months tops.

I say that because your so damn lazy that you didnt even bother to research before doing anything. By the way you asked it seems like you already have a kit but dont know **** about it.

There is a lot more to a turbo than just bolting it on kid. If you aproached your motor swap like this then I'm sure your car is a piece of ****.

If you already have all the pieces... Common sense, and knowing how to turn a ratchet is all you need.

If you're at the beginning stage and are currently building your kit; set your goal, and search to find out how to achieve it.
