Looking good bro. Hang in there, I went through the same thing when I started to piece together my turbo kit. It's a bitch, but at least you know you have everything in the end. It was much easier with the greddy kit because it has a parts list and pictures of everything needed. I feel your pain though, almost there!

 

Yeah I think besides some basic hardware and zip ties and stuff all available at home depot I should be ok.
All main components are there and now have all vacuum, fuel and oil lines mounting hardware etc.
Gotta wait for usps to complete the insurance claim still which is gonna take some time I guess.

 

I think I have basically everything.

Got all the hoses and fuel lines in. Couplers and clamps.
new crank pulley on the way and going to post office to give me old one and old sc pulley.
Bought a new tensioner arbor piece and already have all the bracket mounting hardware and new tensioner screw.
Getting the lock nut from Sideways for easier adjusting.
Still need a sc belt I guess.
New stainless oil feed line is here now as well.
Got the reservoir as well from the seller.

I really hope I am not missing anything important right now. Fine if it is small hardware I can get at home depot or Lowes but would be annoying if it was something I needed to order from Vortech.

In all looks like I spent about $400 extra for parts to complete the kit including powder coating the sc and after cooler. Not bad and now lots of the parts are all brand new too.

 

how much was the powder coating?

 

Got both done for $50 but labor is super cheap here in fl.

 

Ugh looks like I am going to have to powder coat the blower housing again. Banged some stuff into ti and put some markings into the coating. Might go ahead and do it candy red after all and then everything else in textured satin black including my valve cover and intake manifold. That should look nice I think.


Anyways. Does anyone know what belts are needed for this kit? Stock boost.

 

Looking much more complete now.




Anyways anyone know about the belts that are needed for this stock boost?

 

Also can anyone tell if the oil return line is missing any fittings? Is an attachment needed to go into the small red section of hose?

 

there should be a nipple on the charger that the red part goes to and the other part screws into the oil pan.... did you tap your pan?

 

Not yet no. I think I am going to be moving back to NY end of January so probably waiting till I get back up there and pick up an suv so I can have some downtime with my car for install.

The red hose part is a pretty large diameter it seems. I see the nipples for oil coming off the sc but It seems as if I need a metal fitting to go into the red hose part that connects or something. Not sure.
