questions 1) Since the turbo i plan on using is internally wastegated i dont have to worry about the wg... its set to 8psi yes 2) The turbo is oil and water cooled... i know to tap the oil pan, but for the water? it needs to run threw ur engines cooling system somehow. personaly i would use JUST an ...

just fresh seals and lap the valves. realistically you can skip the guides and porting too. i would say just the fresh seals and lap are the only mandatory things. sure as hell dont hurt to port it though! just make sure u gasket match and NOT have the ID of the runners increased. that increases cf...

just what i was told bout the wastegate. As far as the turbo its brand new never been used so it should be good for a few spins around the block. um could anyone help me find out which injectors i have ?
