I have had good luck in the past with deformed thread lock nuts. They can be found at McMaster.

For those who have installed this kit themselves, about how long does it take to install?
Looks very simple compared to other turbo kits. I'd think the most PITA would be the intercooler right? |

About 5 hours on my lift. Lining the oil return pump up took a little bit of time. It only fully seats when it's perfectly lined up, and you can't visually see the notches because its within the head

I also believe that is the biggest bi*ch, but even that was not hard. Lining up the exhaust was a bit of a pain too.

AVO Turbo Kit Owners Topic
Considering I already backfire during some shifts maybe opening the BOV and running rich is a bad idea til I get a better tune...
Oh and PSSSH!

It's worth checking on a dyno especially if you are running a base map or remote tune.

I know!!!
At least looks like it is just a dent and nothing major, hopefully no leaks.

Call the shipping company and bitch! Was there damage to the box? If so make the shipping replace the part. It may now leak but I will be restrictive. Also give Paul a heads up @AVOturboworld
