Houston, we have a lock on tracking! ETA 3/22

Dave @ KDR near Allentown will be doing the install. He'll also be doing the AP tuning. In addition to this kit I picked up oil pressure, temperature, and boost gauges, as well as the RB sandwich plate and ashtray mount. I also got an AEM CAI that we're going to "bolt" on... in much the same manner we plan to address the esmeril piping and intercooler.

Bobby's been great up to this point. I'll provide a follow up once Dave has had a chance to review everything and give me my final list of deltas.

I'm thinking 6psi... no more... should put me in (or smidge over) the stock MT whp range.

I need to find out the part # for the bolt on pipe that mounts onto the turbo opposite the manifold. This part wasn't included and I need to get it sourced. Bobby if you have the manual it would be helpful if you could forward it along... assuming it has a parts reference.

My installer is trying to go through greddy to find the part and potentially order it, but that's going to be a pain in the ***. Hopefully a fellow club member has one lying around in their garage ???

Hey GP, I bought this kit -- it is sold

But I am having a helluva time finding two bolt on pipes for the turbine that were not included.

May I buy them from ya, Jeff? I'd really appreciate it. Word has it that it could take 12 weeks if I have to order them from Trust Japan.

Go through Charles R. Hill (BHR).
If I have it, he'll pass it on.

This turbo has been installed for about two weeks now. While the kit was incomplete (there were a number of other "key" parts missing -- no jab at Bobby though -- price was right) it came together really well in the end.

I have various parts left over I'll probably part out soon. The Synapse BOV needed the anti-stall fitting since I'm not recirculating. I ended up sourcing both a new BOV and the anti-stall as there have been a couple minor changes to the BOV design. I didn't use the timer.... didn't use the GReddy flower/air filter. Also didn't use many of the oil fittings (we either fabricated new ones or ordered proper GReddy replacements).

A bit of the piping was scrapped and fabricated. Word to the wise... Esmeril pipes and their intercooler doesn't line up worth a **** with a GReddy kit and AEM.

The supply line between the snail and oil pan was a biatch. Wasn't included and we tried to make our own... didn't work out too well as it would sweat and expand once heated up. Eventually had to go with the GReddy part.

I can't say enough good things about Dave @ KDR Performance up here. He did a phenomenal job of getting me together.

I'm guessing Bobby's moved on... haven't seen him for a while.

Jeff I'll be seeing you 8/28 for final tuning and its first full on pull (if all goes well).
