Turbo is 75% in!!!!!!!!! =)
Ok cool I got the manifold and turbo in the car today. I slapped the intercooler on the other day took me like 20mins total. My intercooler sticks out under my bumper about 1½ inchs. Hummmm weird. It right up on the bumper beam. Wierd. So I think im gonna try and find someone who wants to trade me for a smaller one. Ummm Downpipe will not be an issue with my AC, or PS That's BIG!!!!!!! I did not wanna get rid of it. I will take pics tomm morning and post them up. I gotta tap an oil pan I have here just don't know where to tap it yet. If anyone knows a good spot let me know thanks guys!

You want to tap the oil pan in the front towards the top and middle. Make sure that the tap doesn't interfere with the bolts that hold the oil pan on.
Did you buy a kit or piece one together? I think I missed that thread...

Well long story. Here we go.
My friend had a 99civic sedan. We will call him "X". Then another friend sold him an LS turbo. We will call him "D". Anyways D was suppost to install the stuff into X's car but the car stayied in D's garage for about 2 months and I just told X to get his fing car out of there and install the motor at my shop. We charged him $400 without installing the turbo. At this point it was about 2½ month into the whole thing b4 we got the car so he was pretty pissed that he had to wait so long. D fed him and did not give him all the parts so he spent about $800 in parts $400 in labor and $3000 for ls turbo setup with tranny. After all this he was just so pissed that he said if I gave him this shitty hatch shell I had he would give me the turbo. Good thing too because I was gonna junk the hatch the next day. Then 3 weeks later he ended up selling the hatch for $300 hehehe. So I got off like a Mofo here is what I ended up getting
B manifold
t3/t4 Turbonetics
Complete piping
Intercooler
Tial 35mm Wategate
Tial BOV
Downpipe (clears AC) Shhhhhhhhwoooo
FMU
