Default Going boost, could use some advice..

So there is probably lots of info on the forums about this already, but maybe you guys can throw some hints at me real quick. I just snagged an almost complete, but used turbo kit for my '06 tC. It includes:

  • Tial Wastegate
  • Type - RS BoV
  • Garret t3/t4 turbo with manifold
  • All the piping(I hope) and a Treadstone Intcooler.
  • AEM fic but no harness

Any points you guys can give on installing, tuning, and anything other parts I might need besides the pnp harness and maybe 440 or 550cc injectors? Oh and maybe an easy way to tap the oil pan for the return? I'm looking to only do around 8psi or so, nothing big, stock internals. Also if any of you are in S.Fla and know any good shops let me know. Thanks

Never got a chance too see it. Was on my way to see it with my friend who was going to install it but got the call that it was sold halfway through the trip. Hope it turns out to be good. Is your tc auto?

My car is 5spd. Most likely getting some used 550cc injectors and a harness at the end of this week. After that its basically just the install, hope everything goes well.

I just know that the kit you bought came off an automatic tc, and from my understanding on research done here, that the intercooler piping is designed differently. Just giving you the heads up or someone correct me if I'm wrong. Just in case you think it's a direct bolt-on.

I've only had my tc for 3.5 weeks?!?! As soon as I complete my headlight project and get my fenders rolled plus alignment, I'll be riding out there.
