yea, no offense but this is what is known as thread jacking. You should start your own thread or pm people instead of using other peoples thread

 

do you want to keep ac? iino i read on turbod16 that that style of mani had horrid fitment issues, the biggest problem i see is the fitment, also you could send the turbo in to get rebuild which would be a lot cheaper than buying a brand new garret or one of that sort.

 

no i'm not keeping a/c. i live in central ny and it doesn't get too hot up here. i want to try and keep power steering though cuz there are a lot of curvy roads. so what i have on the list now is: custom downpipe, some sort of piggyback ecu, new bov, re weld exhaust manifold, clock the turbo, new OEM gaskets. anything else?

 

his wastegate malfunctioned

 

Never cheap-out on things like that.

 

yea this thread has been dead for a while but yea i'm gonna get that kit with a new oil line kit, get the turbo clocked down, with a custom downpipe. plus an emanage.

 

i bought an ebay kit off a kid on craigslist a few weeks ago for $320, i haven't put it on yet but it should be on by the end of the year. i hope it lasts haha
