What do i need to install 14B in 2G?

Should i get the hacker/tweeker kit or does it have stuff i don't need or does it not have stuff i need? Should i just buy the j-pipe? Any advise from 2Gers that have done this? What gains should i see? Thanks.

you'll need the full kit. Or get the compressor housing roated and weld a 90° elbow on it. You'll see supstantial gains.

you don't need the full kit, you'll need a J pipe, SS oil feed line, coolant hoses, 7cm gasket (if you're porting your manifold and turbine housing to 7, otherwise just use the 6cm), and hose clamps, you'll have to switch the coolant lines position, you can bend them if you need and use the coolant hoses to make them longer if necessary, you'll need to file the holes on your oil return line a little to make it fit (not a big deal), and you'll reuse your crush washers.
You'll need a boost gauge and a boost controler, the stock won't work on the 14B.

So i only need the J pipe? What about the 90 Degree elbow and the 2 1/4
HD rubber hose and 4 HD wide hose clamp, i don't need them?

On RRE it say this about the J pipe

"You are porting the compressor housing outlet to match our larger "J" pipe flange"

Does that mean i have to get the compressor housing ported if i use the RRE J pipe?

you can probably use your rubber hose, but a 90 degree elbow will make it easier, I have a greddy lower i/c pipe (cut about 4inch shorter) so I'm not really sure about that.

You don't need to port the outlet larger, but it'll help a lot if you do, it's really easy.

So the 90 Degree elbow is for the lower i/c pipe ohh ok. You say it's easy to port it out, with what a die grinder. I don't have one, how much do they cost and were can i find them.

You can see the 90 Degree elbow, it doesn't look like it's being used for the lower i/c pipe.

the pipe that says hose and conects to the 90 degree elbow is the lower i/c pipe that goes to your intercooler,

You can port the outlet with a dremel, just buy a carbide bit for it, not the stone, it'll clog up in no time.
