you're right, there is no substitute for experience. I started my b16a install and 6 weeks later I had the bastard running then I overheated it and a month later I was going again. With experience you know what to look for, what to do and what not to do, you can read and look at pictures all day and still be behind the guy who actually did it.

hey man dont give up. i almost gave up. atleast u didnt break your t fitting and have an oil filter from hell. fucken stuck. once something goes bad. just stop and go back at it tomorrow. and everything will come out cherry. the things that take the longest to finish and has a lot of problems its gonna run cherry in the end. i went through hardships in my install. but i got it done. and im boostin 11 lbs now. havent had problems yet. not jynxin myself. but go at it tomorrow. it'll be find. i finished my clutch and turbo install in three days. its not so bad. oh and i removed my ac and condensor. free's up soo much space

jb weld saved the day! i didn't know you weren't suppose to weld brass to metal ??? ::) anyways, heres the pics of the oil pan before and after my buddy 'jb' a.k.a, 'mr. weld' hooked me up ;D as far as the install, it got ditched :( i took my a/c out and freed up so much space, but the gay ass ------- ---- 'a/c compatable' stealth mani, put the turbo right in my ------- radiator fan, and there's just no way around that. i'm selling the turbo, manifold and wastegate on egay right now. i did get my oil return line installed while i had the oil pan off, just capped it off, i also centered my i.c. and cleaned the ---- out of my engine bay. hopefully, i'll have a new set up by the end of next week.

after my friend was done with the pan.....

At least there was some progress ::) ::).
It's looking good, It sucks you had to take the A/C out. and that oil pan looks like ---- man, but if it works, no one will actually see it after it's installed. Finish that ----, if you keep this up, it won't be ready June 19th ;)

hey teg.. when i did my install i used jbweld. it really didn't hold to well.. once i tighten the oil return down that ---- cracked. be careful. you should just weld it.
