As far as experience goes, this was the first time I've ever done a turbo install. Only thing I've done before was a complete engine(7M-GE) rebuild.

The other two helped with that rebuild, and one of them have turbo'd another car.

So, completely doable in a weekend. You might just hit a few annoying snags.

that's kind of what I was figuring. I remember the those same bolts being a PITA when I put the borla on but that was pretty recent so hopefully they aren't as bad this time around. appreciate the answer. i'm guessing it was totally worth it though?
