Turbo install this weekend

[terbow]

Lol, thanks Mark! I'm really torn about starting this tomorrow. I dunno if I should start and order needed parts I can't find as I go, or if I should order the rest of the s***, then begin.

i personally would get all the parts but thats just me.

LOL, I have a 98 GTP w/ over 200k miles. It is supercharged though! (glare)

 

[Shane5425]

lucky.... lol
edit: what type of bov are you using... i just loaded a clip of mine... on 2psi... check sig

I would wait till you have all the parts. It will be a lot easier to do everything at once.

And Shane it doesn't sound like the BOV is releasing. It just sounds like the actuator releasing into the Intake. The turbo xs should be a solid release. If its surge it could damage the turbo. Not 100% sure since I only have a sound clip.

so what are the sizes for the water inlet and outlets?

 

[snowblazin]

I believe Tony said it's 19" 3/8 npt. Does that sound right? LOL.

 

[tekkie]

the banjo fittings for the water lines should be 14mm, I just installed mine last night that I got from ATP turbo, its 14mm - 1/4npt

 

[tekkie]

the nut on the banjo fitting is 19mm

here is what I used

I used ss hose and aluminum fittings, those things are retarded expensive
