Default D16y8 turbo install.....pics inside!!! Take a look...tell me what you think.

Well, my project is just about done, I only need the cam gear (should get it today in the mail). Here are some links to pics, I didnt want to put the actual pics in the post as it wouldn't allow everyone to look at them (lots of pics).
This is the first install that we've ever done, so comments and suggestions are encouraged.

Thanks for looking!!!!!

Looks good. Glad to see another sohc turbo . Are you installing this yourself? I'm curious to see how it performs. I almost went with the FMAX kit. Let us know if you go to the track or dyno, I want to see how it compares to my car. Oh yeah, how much was the profecbspec2?
Good luck!

thanks!! Yeah Im installing it myself and with some help of course. The spec II was 295 + tax (since I'm in cali) from KRinspire, it was the best deal I found. I plan on going to the dyno next week, then my first test and tune at the track will prolly be June 13th in palmdale, my next race will be on June 21,22 at LACR.

Nice, very nice.
How much was the kit with everything?
I am thinking about slapping a turbo on mine, but I wanted to know how much will I need.

i bought the kit used on ebay for $1700. msrp for the fmax kit is $3700.
i would say that with all the stuff that i got, it comes out about $3500, so i got everything, for cheaper than the retail price is.

Thanks everyone for your comments!!!!

yes im going but we are going to be pilling up in my friend's sister's truck, its a 2 hour drive for me, and i dont wanna drive my car too far without proper tuning, and my friend's car doesnt have insurance. hopefully you guys get to fontana early enough, i know the last time i went people were being told they were too late. we barely made it in time.
