Re:i hate turbos!
it'll b e ok buddy
i've been having similar problems.
my oil drain is still hook up wit no turbo since Jan
but now that i got everything fixed and welded the damn downpipe is pushing up against my Stealthmode drain line.
My AC hasn't work in over a year now so ima just pull the compressor out even thou my mani and downpipe are Ac compatible..lol
i did another attempt to install it this wednes day but coudln't finish but im am pretty sure the next time it will be in for sure and in like 2 hours max as many time ive had to put and pull it off

Kevin, sorry about the problems with the manifold. If I would have known that the guy I was working with was a fuckbag, I would have never even started doing business with his ***. (www.speed-factor.com) I don't want to say any names though.
