Greddy Turbo Questions thread....
Which fuse do you have to pull (location and number) to let the car crank but not start?
Also, Can someone snap a quick pic of where exactly they tapped into their vac/boost line for their boost gauge?
My BOV requires a boost only line, and recommends you take it right off the wastegate. It is the line that comes out of the little wastegate nipple?

Oh, ok. So crank for ten seconds, cool for a minute, that should be ok?

u can just unclip the injectors if you are trying to get oil pressure. Just make sure you don't run the starter too long. Let it cool down between crankings.
Starting my install on Thursday. I ordered a lot of replacement parts to replace what in my experience with the Greddy kits is the weakpoint.
1)Thicker couplers, red of course.
2)Aluminum t-fittings. On my friends RSX, all the supplied plastic t-fittings disintegrated into powder in about 5000 miles.
3)Aluminum vacuum block
4)K&N filter
5)T bolt clamps to replace hose clamps
6)AEM UEGO
Should at least look pretty under the hood. I'll post pics when installed.
Since this is a question thread, here is one more.
I pride myself on having a spotless car. That includes the undercarriage and motor bay. I wash my motor bay once every month or two. Now, is it safe getting the turbo wet assuming it's bone cold when I wash it, and don't drive until everything dries up? It should be sealed, so I don't see a problem with water getting in. However, it is a piece of iron, so I assume it will rust like crazy. Better that I cover it up right?

It should be fine, surprisingly my manifold / turbine are relativity rust free considering I have vents directly over them.
