95741, It has begun.... Posted by totaleclipse_05, Jun-18-06 07:39 PM I finally have some parts to get my turbo kit started, this is what I got in the mail over the weekend: Needs to be cleaned up a bit, but I should be able to get it to work. I now have most of the bigger things out of the way and can get started on saving for the littler things (piping, gaskets, flanges, wastegate, fcd, fuel pump, etc.) I can't wait til I can get everything and join the ranks of 420a-T people. I am constantly reading up and researching about everything so I should be ok with installing. I also have a friend here that will help me (DSMCrazy3) install because he has done his own turbo setup as well. Now I just need to sell off some of my parts I don't need, work more, and hopefully I will meet my goal of being boosted by Sep. 2006. Wish me luck guys :thumbsup

Not sure where it is from, got it from a "kit" on ebay. Shaft-play is very, very little. Some side to side movement, but not much at all.
