24520, Preparing for turbo.. what else do I need?
Posted by ourformerselves, Jun-13-02 07:08 PM
I have a bottle of fuel injector cleaner which I'll use about a week before I put on the turbo. I'm getting a new fuel filter this week, as well as new spark plugs to put in while doing the turbo install. What model # of spark plugs would you recommend?

What else will I need?



Thanks, Richard (97 ESi)

oil sender remover socket, wd-40, zip ties, solder/iron, elect tape, all the necc tools, wire and relays for fuel pump if need be, new oil and filter, cat to stock down pipe gasket, antifreeze if you loose a lot. Thats all i can think of for now...but should be most the important stuff anyway..

Xtreme did a pretty good job, don't forget the o2 socket - probably not necessary, but definately helpful.

Remember gauges are good. EGT, A/F, Oil pressure: the more you know the better off you'll be.

Yea Sean, I'll be calling you up next Thursday to see if you're going to the track. I'm gonna get some times one last time before I go turbo. I'm looking at the weekend of July 27th for the turbo install.
