Re: turbo installation
Those extra nuts and bolts, just glue them to the outside of the turbo. Seriously. It will be like 100 extra WHP if you do...

Re: turbo installation
Yeah you are exactly right, the kind of car I drive dicttes my personality. I also drive a Cavalier. So am I half of an ass?
If there is no wastegate, is there any hardware for the wastegate included, that would be some of the stuff you have leftorver. Is the kit spec for your car? (obviously, but sometimes they will use the same kit and just change critical things such as manifold and whatnot)Because they might have included things that are universal for some installs... Just a couple thoughts.

hmmm
I was just wondering if the turbo kit you are talking about is the one from maximum boost and i was also wondering how are they helping you fix all these problems such as the bad manifold and bad waste gate.

Re: turbo installation
It honestly isn't rocket science.... The tuning it will require to run properly will be the hard part.

Re: Re: turbo installation
too the one kid...yea i did get it from maximum boost and they aren't helping me with shit he's starting to piss me off...there are bolts to the wastegate he just simply forgot to put it in although he tells me they were on back order and he must have forgot to tell me everyday i talked to him...but anywho im starting to figure things out by asking around they sent me a rubber oil line and im told that it will catch fire or melt so there is another minus on this kit...it is made just for the 2.4 cavy the only problems im having now are the funny angled bolts but i'll figure it out im gonna mount the intercooler this weekend and die grind the manifold cuz that is pretty poorly done then put that on and the turbo and see what else i can do....im not a big time motor head i do body work and painting therefore i lack the other so im trying to learn that so i can do everything on my car and not have to pay anyone 70 bucks an hour for them to do it
