Some pointers would be great but I am pretty familiar with the procedure.

Also, let me know how Crome is because it is a tossup between uberdata and chrome depending on which one I can find a tuner for.

I heard Uberdata has problems and Crome is no hassle program that is free of bugs. From doing research, i heard Crome Pro is much better

It was all pretty easy. I started on a Friday night, worked through Saturday and finished Saturday night. There isn't really anything hard about it, just that there is so much to do. I think the hardest part was either the installation of the blue box (tedious) or putting the manifold on. The bolts under the 3rd and 4th cylinder ports will only go on if you have little asian hands to move them into position and then tighten them.

I don't know about tools but look over the instructions that Greddy provides to see if you need anything more than basic hand tools. I had a full set of hand tools plus air tools in my garage, so I really didn't have a need for anything special.

The clearance may be pretty tight with the larger radiator. You will need to cut the radiator fan shroud to allow the wastegate room, but it may be more than what I cut off. You will also have to reroute the AC line that comes down between the two fans since the turbo directly interferes with it.

My bro and i are going to buy compressor with air gun. Will that speed up process??? Shmoo, im not gonna install the blue box. I will just install my new obd1 p28 chipped ecu program with Crome and my mods. I will be able to run this ecu to the dyno and then get it tuned properly. I got my p28 ecu chipped to work with the greddy turbo and 310's. So i dont need to worry about the blue box crap. Im just worried about my fluidyne clearing and if i can make it fit by cutting pieces of radiator. I dont want to buy a slim fan. I already have on for the ac drive side, as you see.
Take a look at my engine bay at better view and give me your opinions. Please shmoo.

Are you talking about the hose connected to the radiator in the middle that will need to be relocated or bend where exactly. can you pinpoint on diagram

The installation should be super easy since you don't need to install the blue box, just plug in the P28. I hope you have a conversion harness.

The picture below shows the AC line that needs to be bent (circled in teal), the routing for the oil feed line (red), and the routing for the wastegate vacuum line (dark blue):




It does look like you will need to buy a slim fan for the radiator. If you cannot clear the fan shroud and/or blade, you will need a slim fan, but otherwise, you are welcome to try with the stock fan. I had to cut about a 1-1/2" triangle out of the fan to allow enough room for the wastegate. You may not have enough clearance with the wider radiator.

Taping the oil pan is a lot easier than most people make it out to be. Just make deliberate holes that have been measured twice and then use the gaskets with plenty of hondabond to prevent leaks. It isn't hard at all, just nerve wracking.
