installation of evo III 16g

[19GS-t97]

Ok i will soon be getting an evo 3 16g turbo. I kno that the installation kit is 200 which i am going to get on top of gettin the turbo. Is there anything that i should know about that doesnt come wit the kit and anything else i would have to re-use/get. If anyone can tell me how to actually install it or if the kit comes with directions that would be great. Cause right now it sucks not having my stock t25 work at all.

I tried looking but was unsuccessful to find anything like this.

Thanks....

Whos install kit are you using? as they vary slightly from vendor to vendor, then we can let you know what else you need.

I would go with the hacker install kit from road race engineering, its $195. It doesn't include the oil drain line like the extreme kit but you don't need one, you can just re-use the factory one by filing the holes abit, they do include a nicer j-pipe that has 1.5" inlet diameter (so you can port the comp outlet)that expands to 2.25" right away. The extreme kit come with what looks like the factory j-pipe gasket so it would be a smaller diameter. Also the rre comes with the 02 housing gasket and the oil lines feed from the stock location, not sure about the extreme kit. RRE also includes an L shaped pipe with a boost nipple for your boost controller that makes your pipeing hook up in the same location as the factory with couplers & clamps. Their kit is the best complete bolt on.
