Got the first part of my turbo system today, so I decided to make it official.


I get my turbo, IC, BOV, WG, etc on Monday :D. Less than 2 months til the install (hopefully).
Simple kit FTW!
Since people are going to ask, and they will still ask despite the fact that this stuff is listed here in this post..
*not* Polished Log Manifold, sorry Dave. It's black, not polished.
57 Trim .63 A/R
HKS SSQV BOV
.4 bar TiAL WG
AEM filter
FMIC
Black/Black charge piping/couplers
AEM F/IC
550CC Injectors
Forge Manual Boost Controller (6-11psi)
5/19/08 Update:

Put my PTuning axle-back on, doesn't line up at all but I sold my TRD and I didn't want to have no muffler at all...so now I just have an 18" gap between the PTuning and the OEM midpipe lol.

Got the Turbo, WG, some couplers, gauge pod, vacuum block.
6/4/08
Forge Boost controller

7/6/08
Skipped a bunch of stuff, like got in my UEGO and F/IC harness

Yes I know the wiring is retarded, but I didn't want to cut a gaping hole in the middle of the dash.










How's this for awesome fitment. LOL FAIL







The conveniently located MAP sensor and Vacuum block. Along with multi colored zip ties, because I couldn't find any black ones. FIC connected to the T, off the boost gauge.

The tip is the best part. No angled ricer exhaust for me
.
Bmcclure, it's gonna be atleast 4 weeks for the manifold/charge piping to get finished.

They all take 3-4 weeks, plus Todd has been backed up. He's got more people working on them now, so production will increase. You can't just order it and expect the your car to be turbo'd the next day...these things take time.
Carbon, when did u order ur Simple Kit....
Mine should be arriving soon,
last time i spoke to Todd he said he was boxing stuff up soo.....
also DAMN u got the .82 a/r???
lmao i got the classic 57 trim .63
i also got the standard (.5 bar) spring on my wastegate...I really dont want to be boosting any greater than that 7.25 psi

Nice exhaust man! I have it on my tC and I LOVE it to death. The exhaust fits perfect and sounds great. I love the v-band connections because theres no gaskets and you can tweak it to fit perfect with what ever bumper your running
