So I recently bought a mhi small 16g from a seller on tuners and will be installing it soon(of course its rebuilt). I did not spend the 195 for the rre hacker kit because frankly I feel its a little pricey. So what my question is do those of you that have experience feel that I have everything together and second is there any advice or tips you can give me when it comes to the install itself. Here is a list of what I have on its way for the install (this is my first install)

1. MHI small 16g
2. Turbo Outlet Gasket, Turbo Turbine Inlet Gasket, Turbo Compressor Outlet Gasket, Oil Drain Gasket
3.2g DSM Install Kit 16g 14b Side Mount Line Jpipe J Pipe | eBay
4. modified 2g oil return line ( drilled and tapped)

If anything is missing please feel free to let me know. My goal is to have everything I need by the time of install. Should be in about 2 weeks. Thank you in advance
 
Looks like you have your bases covered as far as the install goes. I would suggest 2 gaskets for the oil return line. 1 for the bottom of the turbo, and another for the oil pan. I got a few from the dealer when I did my 14b swap. I want to say they were in the range of 3 bucks for 2 of them. I spent 10 bucks and ended up with 3 pairs. (never know when your going to start leaking oil... LOL)
 
Seems like you got everything you need to install the 16g only thing i dont like about that kit is where the nipple is placed.
