So I picked up a used 093 turbo, downpipe, and other related parts. Not using a stock air filter- didn't come with one. I'm getting ready to dive into it and I need to know info going in so I don't have to take things apart twice.
I appreciate any info. Tips or tricks( if any), so I don't spend a month on this.
It looks like GP controller needs to be moved. Passenger side fender well? Which brings me to...
New glow plug harness? If I mount the controller closer somewhere maybe the wires will reach. I don't know.
Fuel return lines. Are the existing ones gonna get baked? Or is the crossover the problem?
The existing rubber(?) covering the soundproofing looks like it's too close to where the turbo will mount. Talking about the stuff on the firewall.
Do I need a new dipstick tube? I run a E4OD. It looks like it's in the way.
Am I going to have to cut or beat the hell out of the firewall to get the pipes to fit?
I checked an old thread and the guy mentioned that he was told to punch holes in the valley pan under the cdr hole. Is this correct?
Anyone ever use Justin's stainless down pipe for the exhaust? JF sent one with the turbo but it's short and I don't have access or do I know anyone who could bend exhaust pipe for me. It seems pricey but if it cuts downtime I'll consider it. Plus it's 3 inch and I think I can find a 3 to 4 inch connection easy. My exhaust is 4 inch.
The crossover I got was cut, so instead of screwing around welding I picked up a new one with the egt bung welded in already.
Am I missing anything?
And with the pump, how many flats should I turn it up? Was reading it will be under fueled with the turbo, so what is a good starting point.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.I'll get some pics as I go.
