         It sure looks like a direct bolt-on to me, however one thing sure caught my eye was that wastegate actuator

         Adjustable, nice find.

I think 1k is a little steep. There going for less than that now. It is one hell of a turbo. I had one.

It is not a direct replacement. Physically it fits but one hole on the down pipe has to be slotted and you have to drill out the Xover and tap or what ever. None of the stock lines will work. There are no provisions for the o2 sensor.

I have a list of stuff to install this, if and when you get it let me know and I'll find it. I have even offered to loan the tools to install it with a deposit.

Don't have a clue what Canadian funds are, so if the exchange is down around 800 US then that a good deal. I paid 1k 3,4,5 years ago. Damn I can't remember shit anymore. :icon_frown:

Go for it, you will give up sex. ;)

:icon_confused:  hmm...maybe I will wait a little while until I get the car running and then upgrade it.....was hoping it'd be bolt up.  I guess it's not.   When/if I do go for a turbo like this I'll hit you up Jud for some specific info!  Thanks

Don't want to scare you off Kyle but it takes a little effort to bolt one of these on. Fiting and lines are around 100, the drilling, tapping and grinding are just labor.

It's not scaring me off for good...just more scaring me off for a  year until I get my car running.  I've been doing some thinking, and it's probably best to get the car running good with the T25 I have, and then think of upgrading afterwords rather than upgrading right out of the gate. 

I'm not afraid of work, just thinking I have a big enough project in store, I don't need anything more.  It was my understanding it would bolt right on, but ofcourse that would be too easy eh?
