Well i decided to splurge and get in my plans that i had before winter hit here in ohio. Main reason was, i did a lot of things wrong while replacing the turbo, i was just "trying to get it running", since it is my daily. So a few things i dont feel confident on will be changed, especially since my "new" 20 year old turbo is on its way out.

So i ordered the following-t3 50trim .63 exhaust -Top mount stainless mani-Sr aftermarket topmount downpipe-braided drain line-38mm wastegate-and "ebay-ish" oil cooler and filter relocator.

should be a nice little setup, my tune/injectors.z32 maf, will be a nice gift from santa, so i will be running 10-12psi until then on my current(stock) tune.

I was kind of looking for any suggestions for my install or anything i should watch out for that people have ran into, im very experienced with turbo cars, i built my old 11second DSM from stock, so i have the idea by now, but every car is different, and suggestions would be greatly appriciated.

Thanks, and pics of parts will be up as i receive them, along with build pics as i install the parts later next week.
