Yeah he did!!! I was told that he was a lot more than what he really was, but hey you live and you learn. I'm going back trying to fix all the mistakes. I pulled all the piping out, most everything was lose and leaked anyway. I was missing a set bolt for the BOV, piping melted into my abs wires, return to oil pan fell out..............man the list goes on.

Thanks man, I appreciate the offer.

Does anyone know if taking the two reference points for boost could cause problems. One from turbo and one from back of intake tee'd together. Such as popping off a vacuum line off a fuel regulator?

Yeah I don't think it would have caused any problems. The fitting on the turbo is a boost only reference, and the manifold is boost and vacuum. It really doesn't make any sense to hook it up that way, but I doubt it would hurt anything. Sorry to hear about all the troubles...sounds like the guy who worked on it really butchered it up. He unhooked three really critical sensors. That's a big no-no in my book. I also saw the pictures of what your old turbo setup looked like

Thanks for info. guys. I'm trying to put it all back together going to put good rods and pistons this time. I thought I had turbo sold, but guy here backed out, so I'm gonna redo the kit myself with help from a friend of mine. Hopefully it will be right when we're finished.
