Well I got my turbo setup on my car aem fic is hooked up but I think I may have fucked up on the turbo car runs and is ok but I can't hear the turbo spool up it is a t3/t4 with a 55 trim compressor and a 58 trim turbine am I missing any thing or do I need a smaller turbo

...More info?

If you messed up the FIC wiring, the car most likely wouldn't even start.

ok, i quit reading when i couldnt tell when one sentence ended and another begins. that was about 20 words into it and then i figured out i was wasting more time trying to determine where to stop reading a sentence and start a new one and then decided that it wasnt worth my time

good luck with life...hope you dont do this for your boss

whered you get the manifold? Thats how essentially I want mine, but A. I do not want to cut the wiper cowl if thats what you did or B. it looks like a bitch to make a downpipe or get to ECU.

Igot it from eBay Right off hand I can't remember where when I can I'll post a link
I didn't have to cut the wiper cowl it sit about 2" down from it
The turbo I used made me have to move the ecru in the cabin along with my aem fic
For exhaust I had a shop make a custom 2 1/2" exhaust front to back so I really don't know how bad it was
And it really matters what turbo you get for how to make the down pipe mine is a v band turbo so I just bought the 90 degree v band down pipe and the shop worked from that

Do you still have A/C lines? I thought about getting that manafold and turbo set up, but I was worried about A/C line clearance. I decided to go with a bottom mount. Get some heat wrap for that hairdryer and it will keep things much cooler under the hood. O ya, and big props too :w00t:
