Well so far we have the manifold,turbo,wastegate,fmic installed.
It's around 1:20Am here, the ic pipes do need some alterations but its no big deal(having the right tools is a godsend):) Tomorrow bright and early we will start on the fitment of the ic pipes,downpipe(which is damn near perfect)sfmu,and my electronics.Should be done tomorrow,tuned and hittin the streets!

what tools did you need to make the i/c pipes fit??
i had to cut one of the pipes..

Also, how did you manage to put the hard oil return feed line on the pan and have enough clearance for the downpipe? I had to bend my downpipe so that it would clear that.. :(

I used a metal cutter and tig welder on the pipes, as far as the oil pan i totally made up my own set-up welding a return pipe to the front of the pan...the set-up that came in the kit was kinda hokie and prone to leaking.
