guages? which ecu? 1052 or the 1052u - boost controler? with this new turbo will your clutch hold? i would upgrade clutch b4 turbo, cheaper to do clutch labor ($500) before turbo install, because after you have to pay to have turbo kit removed & reinstalled.
Is that turbo a BB turbo - water cooled? do you have oil filter reloctor kit, all the plumbing for the turbo? tapped oil pan? heat sheilding/wrapping for ac lines and electrical wires on passenger side, relocate battery to trunk? I would also have the hot side of turbo and down pipe thermo coated to reduce heat under hood. new bracket for the heater bypass hose turning it parrall to fire wall. these a just a few things that i do when doing a build of this caliber, Hope this helps, good luck.

If you talked to Todd, Tell him my Lawyer is looking for him. He needs to be aware of the court date. Pass on the message for me that he needs to contact me about the court hiring. If not the judge will move forward with out him.
