anyone i know this has been beaten to death but does anyone have a in depth FAQ on this install? i read a Vfaq for a 16g install which i geuss is basicly the same thing but he had a RRE install kit when i made my own. IF anyone has a good faq with pics id really appreciate it
 
There really isn't anything else you need to know. Just follow all the instructions on Vfaq and you'll finish everything with no problem. Make sure you have the right tools though. Its going to be hard if you don't.

-Use a long breaker bar for the turbo bolts.
-to take out the T25 with the stud in there, turn the turbo 1/4 way and it should come out.
-make sure you use some Gasket RTV on the turbo outlet where it meets the Jpipe.
-use the same water lines just flip them around and bend it a little bit when its on the turbo by bolting the turbo on first, and then use a thick screw driver to pry it against the block.
-remember to prime your turbo by pulling the MPI fuse (it should say Engine Moteur) on the fuse box and give it a good few cranks ~10sec each time.

Thats all the pointers I can think of for now.
 
1. unbolt the downpipe from underneath
2. unbolt the 4 bolts on top of manifold that go to turbo,
3. remove intercooler piping and any vaccum lines,
4. pull off manifold
5. pull off turbo
6. install 14b in opposite directions
7. u might want to go to home depot and get new hose cause the stock 2g intercooler piping to the turbo is a stretch and has fallen off on me
done!
i've done it countless # of times

note- i reused all my old lines w/ some custom fabrications.. i suggest all new lines for best results
