Turbo Swap Write-up

Does anyone have an actual, presice outline/writeup of what a turbo swap in a s5 entails? I would love to get as detailed as a writeup as I can, but i've been searching for two days, and have found NOTHING detailed.

Please help!

Just a note.-it's not as easy as it sounds. very time consuming- Let us know how it went when you're done.

THANK YOU!!!
I'll be doing it at NOS FC3S's bro's shop. I'll be paying him to do it, but I'll lend him a hand because I want to be involved in it. For bragging rights more than anything lol

I'll let you guys know. Just in the midst of purchasing parts for the swap.

Actually one more question. How do you modify the NA harness to suit the turbo engine? You have to add one wire, and lengthen another one. A writeup would help alot

Thanks

you want opinions on the differences?

i have a 91 na that was successfully made into a turboii.

i love the power difference. i havent really noticed a difference in handling with the extra weight though.
