For those wanting to upgrade later on to the BASIK or even any of the other manifolds, there will be an upgrade program.

You WILL NOT have to pay full retial on the new mani, dp and if need be any of the chargepipes.

There are "purks" to being part of the TT family. I will always take good care of you

I had a shop done mine coz i dont have a garage/place to do it but its almost pretty much DIY coz i was doing the install with them and helping them with some stuff coz they dont know much of the car..
It did took a lil longer 11am to 2am, i was missing some stuff so we had to run to stores to look for it and improvise things

Difficult part will be
1. removing the oil pan
2. welding the oil return bung (have someone do it)
3. drilling hole in the crashbar to mount the intercooler- the metal is tough!
4. putting the HKS bov in the flange lol

Some areas you might wanna do some homework will be
1. Installing/wiring the gauges
2. clocking the turbo (if not preclocked)
3. wiring the slim fans- you dont want them to turn the wrong way haha

make sure you got your checklist done.. looking for fittings and improvised oil lines took like 5 hrs, plus they misplaced my stock oil pressure sensor so we have to buy a new one, and we have to buy a new drill bit for the crashbar. but that's what i get for not having everything in

phresh47

You read my mind I was just about to ask about this can someone give me a run down of their checklist? I know meaty and java posted one many many many pages ago lol before it became an off topic wonderland

Here's a quick checklist

manifold
turbo
gaskets (turbo-manifold, turbo-downpipe, manifold wasgate, wastegate-dumptube)- you can live without it though
wastegate
dumptube
vacuum hoses
vacuum manifold
intercooler pipes
intercooler
charge pipe
air filter
intake pipe
bov
oil return line- w/ bung/fitting
oil feed line w/ flange, npt-fitting
waterlines- only for watercooled turbo
slim fans
injectors
spark plugs
engine/fuel management and harness
couplers, clamps
gauges

Hardware
electrical wire for slim fans
1/8 NPT fitting for oil pressure gauge
high temp teflon tape
oil pan sealant
red rtv
vacuum hoses
good snap ring pliers
5 quarts of oil
zip ties, regular and small ones
hose clamps (worm gears)
knee pads
redbull
corona

try to assemble some parts if you can so install would be just direct bolt on less figuring out

phresh47

Thanks ace I'm gunna sort everything out tonight to make sure I have everything I know I'm missing my injectors and everything else should have come with the kit minus the oil and things like That

java09

phresh47

java09

vac lines, oil, oil filter, red (high temp) RTV selant, teflon tape, disposable oil change box, sealant for the oil pan purchased from toyota.. thats some of the random stuff i had to pick up.. it will save you some trips!

phresh47
