What is your plan with the turbo kit? Save for another project?

 

No sir, it's for sale. Haven't listed on the forums yet because I haven't got good pictures of the parts cleaned up.

 

Got the new motor mounts, headers and y pipe installed after work yesterday







Drivers side o2 has plenty of clearance



Passenger side wiring barely touched the frame, but nothing to worry about







Also got the turbo exhaust removed from the truck

 

are the injectors going with the turbo kit?

 

Not at this time, I need to find some good stock ones first. For now, I just left the fuel system the way it was to make things easy. I would like to find some OEM injectors or cheap lower lb/hr ones.

 

I've got a set of 32-35lb flex fuel ones I could let go of

 

More progress today. Got the coilovers harness routed to both sides, PCV hose wrapped in techflex



MAF wiring routed to airbox. It's ziptied to the steam vent line



Swaybar installed. Going to have to reroute the brake line so it doesn't get pinched



Towhook covers installed



Intake and catch can permanently installed



Just need to remake the harness for the coilpacks that mounts to the bracket, buy a new coolant hose (I don't remember cutting my OEM one but it's too short now), wrap those in techflex, get a new tune file and it will be ready to start up. I still need to order a catback exhaust so I can do a finally install of the y-pipe. It's just loosely installed under there right now

 

I ran my brake lines under the sway bar, my first brake line burst from being pinched and I never noticed it.

 

Hell I have the stock injectors outta my 08 probably 15k miles on em… Sad to see the de-mod too, but on the bright side changing plugs will be waaayyy easier now.

 

Axles, 5" driveshaft, and 1350 pinion yoke are removed and OEM parts put back. Just need to figure out what to do for the driveshaft.



Traction bars removed.



Engine bay is 100% now, just need to reinstall the OEM injectors
