Its really not that hard of an install. Where you located? DId you get all the lines and such with the 14B?
ya from what i understand ill have the things needed to do it.. im sure i can get it eventually but i want to make sure its done right.. its not that i want someone to do it for me.. just someone to be there and supervise me to assure that i dont mess things up or i dont forget anything...
Yeah.. I understand totally When do you plan on getting the 14B?
so you have everything needed for install?Originally Posted by Tomsheist
oil feed line
oil return line
j-pipe
lower j-pipe (you can use your stock licp, but you'll have to cut it up a bit)
gaskets (turbo-manifold gasket, oil return line gasket, etc.)
(1) manifold - turbo bolt (the t25 has a stud, the 14b doesn't)
as long as you have everything, the install shouldn't take more than 1 hr.
if ya do the install on the weekend, i'll be happy to "supervise"
well from what i was told all i need is the oil feed/return lines j pipe and turbo.. as for gasket and manifold.. i wasnt told i needed those.. well this is getting tricky
You don't need a manifold.. just the turbo to manifold bolt. I would change out the gaskets as well. They aren't that expensive, and its a good thing to do.
The gaskets needed are:
turbo to manifold
turbo to O2 housing
O2 housing to down pipe
(2) oil return line gaskets
(4)crush washers for the water feed and return lines,
Compressor outlet/j pipe gasket. (RTV is fine)
$19 total
You'll need the banjo bolts and crush washers for the 1G oil feed line, one for the head and one for the turbo
$12 total
1 long manifold to turbo bolt is highly recommended
$8.75
Having all of these makes the install easy and pretty much garantees no leaks. Finally finishing everything and having a tap tap tap exhaust leak or coolant or oil dripping everywhere and bruning off SUCKS! You can reuse all of that crap but the chances for leaks sky rocket and it's not worth it, especially if you get it together and then have to wait a week to drive your car because you're waiting on the gasket order.
Call Road Race Engineering and tell them that's the stuff you need, those are their prices. You should have it in a couple days.

Like george's car?as long as you have everything, the install shouldn't take more than 1 hr.
my evo3 install only took ~40 min, but then again we kinda rushed it
should only take an hour
make SURE your feed line is TIGHT
