I'm trying to put together a checklist sort of thing for pwople who are installing their custom turbo kits, and obviously won't have instructions. I was thinking we could just go with a typical setup, inline fuel pump, sfmu, 1G BOV, 1G SMIC, the things that a lot of people with custom kits use. I want to get a list of all the oil line connections, vacuum lines, fuel lines, EVERYTHING. Pretty much a step-by-step guide, that could be used with almost any custom setup. thanks guys, get this good so it can go in the "things we've seen before."

There is no one single list that will work for everyone. But here's what I used:

NGK BRK7E-11 Plugs - NGK-1283 (Paid 7.96 @ summitracing.com)
Valve Cover Breather Filter (Paid 7.99 @ Autozone)
Oil Catch Can ($50 @ RRE)
Autometer Phantom A/F Gauge ATM-5775 (Paid $30)
Autometer Phantom Oil Pressure Gauge ATM-5757 (Paid $49)
Autometer Phantom Transmission Temperature Gauge ATM-5727 (Paid $49)
Autometer Phantom EGT Gauge 5744 (paid $136 @ summit)
Autometer Phantom Boost Gauge ATM-5703 ($47 @ summit)
Autometer Phantom Electric Fuel Pressure Gauge ($189 @ summit)
Garrett T3 Turbocharger (Paid $403 @ eBay.com)
Custom Turbo Manifold (Paid $250 @ gottude.com/auto)
Oil Line Kit (Paid $80 @ gottude.com/auto)
Vortech S-FMU w/ all disks & springs (Paid $210 shipped)
INTAKE FILTER & pipe (from old CAI)
Missing Link (paid $55 shipped @ group5motorsport.com)
Holley 255lph HP fuel pump (Paid $100 shipped)
1g BOV crushed (Paid $46.00 shipped @ ebay.com)

Starion Front Mount Intercooler (Paid $157 shipped)

SS Fuel lines/fittings -6AN (paid $130 @ summitracing.com)
Custom 2.5" turbo-back exhaust ($250 @ Ray's Custom Exhaust)

Total comes to $2500. I wouldn't have it any other way. This doesn't include my fully built engine that came before the turbo. I initially tuned for 15psi and now I'm in the process of tuning for 22-25psi. It's not a daily driver though.

thanks, thats a good list and all, but I mean more along the lines of an installation checklist, such as...
"connect the vacuum line from the BOV to the intake manifold" and things like that.

you'll have to do a search. theres no one single source for it all...

USED TO HAVE...Everything you wish you had, and then some...

You are somebody special Tim, you matter! - from the admins (but nobody likes you, because your username is just like that other guy's, and you whine a lot)

If you're doing a custom install, then you should have plenty of experience and knowledge about how a turbo system works and how it's installed. See the HRC and/or Star instructions for a typical installation guide... and Corky Bell's book about turbocharging. Also check out homemadeturbo.com!

haha yeah, i know all this, andi know that there is no single source, bu that is what I am trying to make fo he people who doit in the future. i have maximum boost and all that. just tryin to help out other people.
