Okay so the other day i broke my T04E and went to XS to get a new one. I will be getting it in a couple of days. now my question is, is it hard to install the turbo myself... looks like a few bolts to me but i could be wrong. .. i've installed full exhausts before just never a turbo. I"m low on cash and want to know if i could bust it out in a day.

 

So has no one installed their own turbo?????? I already have XS kit on, just upgrading turbo. Can i do this project in about a day? I'm pretty good with cars, just not sure if there is something very difficult about installing a turbo.

 

if you have the kit on already, it shouldnt be that hard....

 

Yeah it's 4 bolts to bolt it to the manifold and a couple of water and oil hoses. Just go slow and I'm sure there won't be any troubles

 

They use a water cooled turbo? It should be pretty easy...the only tough part on mine was the oil lines but I think that may be specific to just my setup which I fabbed myself. I had to bolt the drain line on last and from on my back under the car...man was it tough getting my hands up there.

 

can someone give me some direction of where i can find a link of a single turbo conversion installation. i started to take out my twins yesturday and still have a few bolts holding them in place. there is so many vacum lines going to the turbo, i just need some reference points. thanx.



a few pictures would be nice and where the bolts on the stock manifold are.

 

Lookee here...
