I bought a different china brand wastegate so I could boost less.
I had to buy 2 exhaust clamps because the spot welds broke on them from the kit.
Titanium heat wrap
Oil filter sandwich plate
Oil pan spacer with fittings
Utec
550cc injectors
The cable I got was a 3.5mm to usb and I need a 2.5mm to usb.
I went to radio shack and all they had was 3.5mm to 2.5mm(mono) so I need to order another cable or an adapter

Lack of updates due to not having the correct cable(just came in the mail today and hopefully it works because I needed to buy a few serial cables before I found one that worked with the utec)
Also we got about 5-8" of snow last night. It should be melted in a couple days
Sidenote- Bought a CF hood off a member here for cheap($150). Wet-sanded it down over the weekend. This is how it looks like wet after about 4 hrs of sanding 220grit

No real updates.
Make a type-rs to rlf flange plate and replaced BOV with a replica Turbo-xs RFL.(WHICH SOUNDS FKIN AWESOME)
Laptop sucks and blue screens with a usb error when trying to connect to my LC-1 and my Utec.
Bought some aftermarket headlights that I had to return due to angle issues, so I can not drive at night. Ordered a different set. If these don't work I'm going to get a stock set.
Instead of reformatting my computer since it doesn't even hold a charge my friends is going to let me borrow his this week and maybe I can finally get some logs to adjust this horrid map. Tn 550cc map. Which is pretty good for regular cruising, but idle goes from 14-17 and low rpm wot goes from 9 to redline 12.5 so its way too rich at low rpm and lean at high.

iideadeyeii,
I am doing the same swap. Except with upgraded bov and wastegate. In what order should i do the piping to make it fit? If you could do it over again, where would you have started? Overall great thread and good information.

I am in wiesbaden. I wanted your APS twin kit but you wouldnt budge lmfao. Anyways, the kit cost 1500. Had it shipped to my familys house so that i could get it here. Its on its way now. Anyways, mine has 94,000. will be rebuilt once i get back to the states. Im tuning with uprev (got the cable today). IM not trying to take away from his thread....I'll be making my own DIY build when the kit comes in. Sracura, why do you want a single kit anyways? If i had more money i would have went twins haha. Not knocking single turbo because i bought one, but yea haha.

I should have read over this when installing, but it pretty much tell you everything you need. Just make sure the wastegaste pipe is bolted to the downpipe before installing or you will have to take it all apart to install it.
All my v-band exhaust flanges leaked. They sell v-band flange gaskets, but I didn't want to take it all apart to install, so I just used furnace cement which works, but looks awful and was a pain to reach every place.
