question: is yours (if it is that one yours) kit hit on the wall of the engine (passenger side) and the head of the engine????
the piece where intake is connected to, the one that comes from the ic.

It did slightly so I bent the bracket for the ic and messed around with the pipes

Either the downpipe or getting the return oil bung welded up

yeah. also you can choose now.... before they didnt have it, a second bung on the dp for wideband.

also why i got a purple (i think or maybe is red) BOV lol i wanted something like silver (like ctg5040) :P

For being hard, i honestly haven't had any past experience with turboing a car. My one buddy and I worked on it for a solid day and got a lot done. The rest I basically did on my own during nights and weekends i didn't have work or school. I'm not sayin anyone could do this but if you take your time and have common car knowledge i think you'll be alright. Also zzp always emailed me back asap when i had ?'s, and I sure had a bunch for this being my first build.

They welded up a second bung on my dp for free when I say welding up the bung I'm talking the bung for the drain oil line from the turbo bc u have to drop the Pan drill the whole so it drains above the windeg tray and find someone with a tig set up

justypontiacg5gt

could you thread it in to a bolt hole instead? or the drain hole?

mmcgee123

iTrader: (1)

I wouldn't

justypontiacg5gt

it would be the same thing tho right?

mmcgee123

iTrader: (1)

If it's below the oil level it won't drain fast enough and back inthw turbo causing oil seals to blow out

justypontiacg5gt

would there be a bolt that is threaded into the block above the or close to?

mmcgee123

That has oil pressure feed yes not for a drain and how r u gonna have a drain line that sits higher then turbo ?

justypontiacg5gt

im not saying higher than the turbo. im saying higher than the oil level in the bottom of the engine.

im just trying to find simpler ways to install the kit. not argue

justypontiacg5gt

anybody have pics of the turbo mounted? any pics of the kit layed out on the floor?

ctg5040

I'll try to take some more pics of the kit on my car and post them later tonight.

The Allen ports in the block are oil jackets that have pressured oil so no u can't have a drain line into a pressured oil port u would just have 2 pressure lines then so how bout u take ur oil pan off and take it to a machine shop that has a tig welder and a drill press and pay 30$ to have it done or u can do it the wrong way and mess up a $1000 turbo and possibly a engine just saying

justypontiacg5gt

just found out ZZP has an oil pan for 90 dollars and you get 45 back if you send you stocker back. good deal!!!

Cobalt & Ion ---> ZZ Performance

just a question. problem resolved with zzp
