You would probably want to read through the stickies in teh KAT section:

Ya like he said, If you need to keep the egr you should plumb it into your downpipe. All the other info should be easy to find.

i dont need to keep i just need to know how to get rid of it

[liquid_cool]

just some food for thought..with a T25 set up..you need to have a cat, the T25's use small amounts of back pressure to help seal the shaft seals in the turbo its self....if you dont run a cat..it may smoke at idle...at WOT..there is no smoking issue...bet they have been know to seal better and eliminate the smoking issue with just a high flow cat..hope this helps.

check the ecu for trouble codes. then clear the codes, go for a drive and check for codes again.

thank u it turned out to a bad maf but got it going now . an after i put my turbo on how bad is it goint to run with out a tune? i will need to drive it a hour to have it tuned.

[biggie]

What are you tuning with? Very possible to blow the engine without a tune.

[240man91]

um i idk yet i want to run 6psi for driving an 10 for playn an what ever the shop has proble a lap top an a dyno i was thinkn if i just run it at like 3psi of boost it would b ok with out tune but idk thats y i ask

[240man91]

hey guy this might seem like a dum qustion but, where do i hook up my boost gauge i have read so many diffrent things. most say to hook it up to my f.p.r but i do not run one the pump i have dose not need one an peopl say to tap into my intake an i dont want to do that,an people say just tap into any vaccum line on the intake an i dont think that is right eather an people say to hook it to the back of the bov to so, i dont know. so if u could point me in the right way it would be cool
