New Turbo and Fuel Kit parts need help

Hello everyone,

I recently got a GT3574 Kit from ASPEC along with the 450R Fuel kit from there.

I am attaching the images and was wondering if someone could help me identifying everything. Im sure others will find this useful too.

Once i get the rest of my car apart and start putting pieces on Im sure i would understand it all, but i would rather go into it knowing a little more than i currently do.

Also, if you could tell me, on the picture of the turbo you will see a inlet/outlet where a flange bolts on, what goes there, or if it gets blocked off that would be great because nothing seems to quite fit there.

And the little holes on the waste gate, im not overly sure how to go about those either.

You need to find someone qualified to install that stuff, if you dont know where it goes. Explaining it over the forum isn't going to help much.

It is actually very "doable" , if you do a lot of reading on this forum and the inter net you'll eventually figure it out , but for you and your cars safety .......... go with what jason said , fuel leaking on a hot engine is serious stuff !!!

Didn't you get some instructions with the kit of some kind?

Even if you've done it 100 times you should have some kind of documentation provided with everything you purchase, if just to verify 100% that you have installed it as the seller intended and to verify you received all the items in the kit.

Single turbo kits are not a bolt-on affair, period. Either start searching and reading a lot on this forum over build threads / how-to's, or get someone who knows what they're doing to install it. There's no simple answer to "How do I install a single turbo in my FD."

I got all of this from A-Spec it is their GT3574 turbo kit and the 450R fuel kit.

In all honesty it does not look that complex, ive rebuilt motors and transmissions, have been doing all of my own repair work for years. There's only so many spots these parts can go.

Really the only confusing part ive came across is the wastegate and the turbo because there are so many inlets and outlets.

I'll figure it out im sure. But no, it did not come with any documentation.
