This from someone who thinks that streetports on NAs are pointless and half bridges don't brap....yeah, whatever.

As I've said many, many times to those who insult the first version of my NA-turbo setup:

1. It was an experiment and a prototype. Nowhere in there was the requirement for it to look "pretty".
2. I did it, they didn't. 'Nuff said to all the armchair fabricators.
3. For being so "hacked" the setup worked brilliantly.

I'm a little sensitive when people take something out of context and then use it as an insult.

It'll start and run just by connecting up the existing harness. Later you'll have to run two wires from one of the ACV harness plugs to a solenoid to control the Twin Scroll Actuator. That is not required right now. The twin scroll is spring loaded full open with no solenoid so it's doubtful you'll notice it missing right away.

I'd just concentrate on doing the larger things right now like porting that manifold. Deciding how you'll get oil to the turbo. Deciding how to feed the turbo water. Deciding how to return oil to the pan from the turbo.

i do have the front water pump cover from the TII and that looks like it has the hook ups i need for the oil to and from the turbo. coolent may be a different issue if there is no hook ups for it however there is at least one line going into the intake that i think i can use on the turbocharger, would that be an acceptable way to do it?

I'm doing this same conversion. Make sure you get the corresponding year TII injectors with your car. Ex: if your cars an 87 get 87 TII injectors. but check to make sure abotu high/low impedance.

I often file the notch because the offset injector connectors are almost impossible to find.

As far as your injectors, you are over thinking this a lot. If you are putting low impedance injectors into a high impedance car, then add resistors.
