I think I put a list of everything I have somewhere earlier in this post and speradic pictures. You need an engine tuner, turbo flanges, injectors, walbro 255lph fuel pump, geared scavenger oil pump, oil lines/fittings, not sure if 97's are map sensored or maf's...so i dont know there. intercooler/piping, bov, wastegate, various exhaust tubing and bends, someone that can weld or fab. wideband a/f gauge, oil pressure gauge, any other gauges you want. Thats what I can think of for now. for diy instructions use a search function like google and just type in diy remote turbo

That's funny, I'm going through the same thing. So far I got the oil drain flange and oil pressure regulator from stealthmode. Now I'm looking for a good link for fittings, already got the feed and return hoses. -4 for feed and -10 for return.

I'll probably use my ebay bucks and get them from there...

In the frame. It will be fine. I made the bracket a couple of days ago. I got next week off so I plan to make some progress. God I hate drilling through that frame. Anybody got any tips?

The charge pipes are all done and in place.

I made a bracket for the oil pump:

And ran oil lines:

I switched the 90 exiting the pump for a 45. Now it hughs the frame better:

For oil feed I tapped into the oil pressure switch:
IMAG0720.jpg

And for return I listened to ruger226 and went with the oil filter
sandwichadaptor from airram:


I bought a cap to close the feed orifice:

I could have finished everthing this weekend but this happened next:

I was hit on Thursday so now I'm waiting on my truck to get out of the bodywork shop so I can finish!!!!!!
