max boost really helped me get the visuals going. sometimes you can read and read and read, and if you can't come up with the right picture in your head all you have are meaningless words. one of these days I might get motivated and make pictures for the faq, but probably not, I'm lazy.

3. then start looking at ---- to buy, sounds like you already have a good majority of ---- you need.
4. get another beer (yes, by the 4th step, you should be on your 3rd beer)
5. then start playin around with your stuff. take ---- apart, clean it, get familiar with it. (we all do this)
6. look at what other people use, and how they use it. alot of people on here use the stealthmode oil line kit. It is everything you need, and works really well.
7. the adaptor plate is also really easy to come by. its in the classified section also. look under the BMC race or weir racing thread. both are very reputable people.
8. get another beer. (by this time, you are probably feeling it)
9. start thinking of how you want to set ---- up, how you want to do it, and when.
10. go pass out.
repeat this process daily for about a month. your turbo mind will be filled with knowledge.

when you start buying stuff, just kinda think of how you want to set it up, all of that kind of stuff. we all learned by screwing ---- up, putting ---- on backwords, grinding holes in blocks, we all screw ---- up at one time or another. this is how you learn. we all started here.
dont expect 1 person to spell the ---- out. tell your dad to look in here to.
i did this minus the steps involving beer. and then i read some more. and i still have no idea nad i've put at least 50 hours into reading turbo setup q and a's and all sorts of crap on this website and a lot of others. this site however provides a bounty of links to many sites full of incredibly jammed pack turbo information.

read, read..read some more...then start thinking, then go read more. cuz thats what i ended up doing and still am doing. doesnt hurt to message, email and chat with a few of the members though, some may come off as asshats, which some are, but a lot of them are very helpful and cool people who know wtf they are talking about.

i think the first thing i read on this site was "search before you even think of posting" or something like that, and so i did, and pretty much its something that you're gonna need to do, cuz spoon feeding is not looked upon highly around these parts.
