Deep sockets won't bite onto it. The best way I found was to go from the top with an open end. Problem is that I can only get so far before the head gets in the way. It's seriously making me angry.

I used custom bolts with hex head thus no socket needed also safety wired all the bolts after having to retighten the original bolts. There is also small head bolts just for this type of application. Check with your local nut and bolt specialty store.

I finally got it all taken care of but thats not a bad idea at all. That was tge biggest pain of this entire install. Lol

Used mine for the SC setup, have still not gotten the BYT swap done yet so cant comment how it is for the LSJ turbo. Def a nice feature either way.

If you talking to me basically nothing has been touched and nothing was done last week again. So its basically nowhere close currently.

I ordered the complete swap kit from zzp No cat, External dump, Bullseye s252 Extended Tip, No injectors( already have 60#), NO tune because im driving it up after install, boost controller and zzp 50mm BOV,

Im going to pick it up on friday at zzp.

Did i mess anything up with my order does it sound correct?

after install, Im selling the LSJ bolt off kit that comes off my car, Anyone interested let me know!

sounds good man. i dont think anything seems to be missing. on another note i dont think anyone here would be interested in an m62 kit lol

welcome to the dark side haha

50mm bov? thats fairly large for the HP area. but other than that sounds like you have everything that u need though

did you get return style?

l8r,

tlanzetta11

I did not, whats the bennifits of it?

Do you know if theres any welding that needs to be done with the purchase of the zzp turbo swap kit i mentioned? im seeing how everyone welds the oil feed line on their oil pan, does zzp's kit require that or anything like it welding wise?

slawson0042

Car runs fantastic. Had a small problem with the boost controller. I'm only set at 17psi for now. Anything after that and my clutch starts crying. Lol. In my opinion it runs better than it did stock. As for the manifold... I'd rather not talk about it...ever...again. Lol.

the only thing you have to weld is the oil tap fittin in order to run ur oil line from ur turbo to the oil pan. that would be all the welding there can be when it comes to these builds. good luck man, keep us posted. btw if you can get a base map for that 3 hour drive then do so. driving the car with a retarded tune on that setuo for a 3 hour trip sounds like it can mean trouble down later on just saying...

sounds great man. still getting lag?

slawson0042

Lol. Full spool at 4k

New turbo comes in tomorrow. Should spool a little faster.

tlanzetta11

Thank you, And yeah ill probably do that, dont want problems later!

Ill keep everyone posted

tlanzetta11

Also can you use the oil drain hole for the oil return instead of welding another hole? would that work why or why not?

The oil drain is for the oil return. Your only welding 1 thing, the bung to the oil pan for the turbo return line.

tlanzetta11

So i couldnt use it?

Where does turbo get the oil from if you only have to weld the return?
