TURBO INTSTALLATION ON OAHU
Hi guys one of my first posts on here and I was just looking for some guidance on where I can get my TurboToyotas stage one turbo kit installed?? Thanks for the responses in advance I appreciate it. I also have the AEM TRU Boost, UEGO Air/Fuel Gauge, AEM Oil Pressure Gauge and HKS Typr-1 Turbo Timer, I can install those if the price is going to be to much though. My GF funded most of this excursion and she prefers that me and my friends dont install so if you all can fill me in that would be cool.. Thanks.

oooo, turbo toyotas kit. nice man, i had my dezod kit for almost a year so far. i installed it in my garage so im sorry, i can't recommend any place. to be honest, i don't wanna let any "tuner" shop touch my car if i can help it.
good luck with the install and maybe we can meet up one day. im also on forumshawaii.net under the same screen name so you can message me there as well.
what kinda management are you gonna be running?

i got the greddy e-mange with 550cc injectors.. i know the e-mange isnt the greatest but i plan to up grade to a aem stand alone later..
you think maybe we could meet up when the kit officially comes in and maybe work out some kind of deal to install together? I can pay! not as much as vakamon racing wants but i can! haha
if you could i will haha

And Java, i have a turbotoyotas kit too, did you get upgrades on the stage 1? Are you gonna tune right after install or run a basemap for a while before tuning? just asking
coz im planning to just run a basemap then drive about 200-300 miles for a tune but not sure if its safe.

Not to hard at all. For someone thats somewhat mechanically inclined, it should take about 5 hours at most to install the kit.
Took me 3 to pull all mine off
Scale from 1-10, id say its a 5

Drain the oil, take off the pan, clean it, take it to a muffler shop and have him tap it, and weld it ( make sure in the right spot, lol )

You wanna make you tap right in the front. Then run your line up to the turbo
