I just have an air filter on the pipe that has the BOV, so there is no boost right now. The only stuff I modified was: Mounted the manifold and turbo to get the downpipe welded (custom made) then tapped into the oil line by the oil pressure sensor. Thats pretty much it, so the exhaust is turning the turbine, but nothing else is different. So is this just coincidence that my fuel system got screwed up or went out? I also had my alternator crap out after installing a new stereo deck (no amp or anything else)

ok well heres the deal. Your not hurting your car in anyways by doing what u'r doing here.. BUT, DO NOT put boost to your motor with out some type of way to add fuel while under boosted pressure. YOU WILL lean out your motor if u do this. So just an a friendly FYI, make sure that by the time u do have all your charge piping done & what not that before you drive this thing, at bare minimum, you have an FMU on there. I'd personally go get some bigger injectors & chip u'r ECU, but just make sure that u've got something done coz u don't wanna blow that engine up due to running it lean.

Congratz on the turbo setup!
