#67631, "Finally Turbo! A little long..."


          

Hey everyone,
Most of you probably don't know me because I don't post much. But anyway, after about 8 months of planning and buying things when I had the money to spend on extras, I'm finally turboed. I decided to go with a T-25 becuase this is mostly my street machine and you can't beat building boost at 2k. Anyway, I work at Aerocomp Racing which has that fast 1g gsx that runs 9 sec quarters. (check out www.aerocompracing.com) so the boss there was nice enough to let me use their stuff to put my stuff in my car. They are really great people there that will do a great job if you live in the central florida area and need some quality work done right. Anyway, after a fiasco with some sub-quality oil lines, I anted-up the dough for some good braided aeroquip stuff which looks beautiful.
Some of the biggest problems I had with my install was one stuck-on bolt on the manifold that after completely rounding it off, I finally ground it off and removed the stock. The oil pressure sender was a pain until i got the socket (This is definitely a must!). I still have little problems with fuel pressure and tuning but it's great. There was a lot of times when I questioned whether it was worth it, but the first time the car started to pull, i knew that it was all worth it. I have a FMIC i have to put in eventually and hope to run 9 psi until i can get some forged internals. But right now I'm officially poor.
Anyway,
Thanks guys for all your help, I couldn't have done it without you.

Yep, just pull them off and stick'em right on!
