#4392, "installs suck!"




          

All I have to say is f*ckin sh*t god damn *sshole b*tch *ss money sucking b*tch mobile. Here's a synapses so far (I have the FMU, fuel pump and headache awaiting me in the morning).

1) remove header, should be no problem and all is good, then bolt # last one. Not sh*t invented by man could get if off without a power device. I cursed it, it broke several tools, I drill the bastard and used Easy out tap to remove it. Nothing easy at all about it.
2) Oil sender "right in the back, cant miss it, 1 1/16. no problem" sound familiar. Cant miss is? Why the hell did I have my knock sensor (I guess) out in no time. I'm like small fitting, no oil, remove something else. Well I got to the oil sending switch and it came out well enough only for me to break it when I took it off once too many not following direction sequence. I have a plug fitting to get me by till I can replace it.
3) Oil pan. Apparently Bill my mechanic thought the bolts needed to be tightened enough hold bridges together. hrs later and brocken socket #2 and it was off. Pull drain plug and believed to have the collection pan underneath the pan drain. Well I spent the next 4-5 hrs rubbing my ass and back of head in the exxon Valdies spill (note to self. change own oil more often).
4)Installed manifold, wastegate, downpipe, oil drain pipe ect. Why is something so seemingly simple such a pain in the ass. I did enjoy installing the bare manifold and thats where the fun ended.
5) Finally no way in hell my intake pipe and BOV are going to fit with the battery in the factory location, much less clear the hood (I need a bigger bubble and would have to remove my strut bar). Rotating the compressor housing did shi*t (I'm going to look at some more stage 1s to see if mine differs. Needless to say tommorow I'll be hacking that up. Should I fail a muffler shop will do what the f*ck I tell them and get me rolling.

Spoke to my girl tonight and she reminded me I'm installing her engagement ring. Me and my mom joked about using her engagement ring money on a turbo. I believe I am doomed to have a unpleasurable weekend due to my selfish actions (note to self: Next time get the bitch a ring).

lol, ok this is getting funny. It just so happens I have a used extra one you can have. If you want it let me know. I beleive the dealer wants like $30 bucks, so that could save you some cash for some drinks and Exedrin. emoji
I fell for ya bro, but there is no way it is harder than the "custom" install of Mickeys.
Good luck and let me know.
SEE YA!!!!!!!!!!!MWC

The BOV i/c pipe does fit, but you gotta take out the battery and jam the pipe on the throttle body. It's a tight fit!

At least your downpipe fit with no probs..
