Re: Do you guys replace your oil filter during your turbo project?
I am not sure I would replace it solely based on a turbo project unless the oil was contaminated. However an oil filter is cheap and if one is going to switch oil or what not I guess it could'nt hurt. I would say for me a tune up would take more precidence than just a filter change. If I had an auto, I would replace the fluid before putting extra power though the trans too. Most of you guys run 5 speeds, ect. though.

if its that big of a deal why dont you take off your oil pan when tapping it its not tough. your down pipe will already be removed for the new one so you will be just about 20-30 10mm nuts and bolts away
