Default Trick kit install

Been waiting to do this forever, finally got it done. Trick kit fit realy nice. Especially the hot pipes pieces, wastegate is vented to the downpipe and was a perfect fit. Thanks to everyone that answered all my dang questions. Few pics




My custom one off 45

i cant tell very well from the angle of the picture, but make sure you have the turbo clocked so the oil drain is straight down.

thanks kb, i ain gonna lie i wondered what the hell they were asking about. ON the turbo itself i assume i could tweak it a little more to fix the oil line, but the coolant lines do at some point become a problem.As far as the other fitting they are all downward and upward on the oil return, that was before we tweaked it and ran the line. The inter cooler is BOlted to the frame. Just remove the tow hooks and its easy.Its mounted about as far forward as possible. Wouls you like pics.....

NIce install,, the turbos oil drain is aiming looks like at 4:30 to 5:00 if looking from the front. I see why you had to tweek the water lines.

Nice install Colton.
you should see that extension piece you requested today.

Was your intercooler to big to mount it in from of the radiator?
