so i know i need a 5 bolt to 3 bolt adapter or someone to put a 5 bolt on the exhaust.
i have -06AN lines on the car now so i just need to know what thread size the turbo has so i can get ends for the lines. and i just need the intake side adapters, but im not sure of a good place to get them.
Do you have the turbo? If so, why would you be asking us what size?
The threads on garret turbos are typically m12/m14 (and maybe m16). Go to a hardware store, buy a bolt of each size to use as a gauge and you'll quickly have your answer.
ya sounds like a plan. shouldnt be any harder than putting in our TDO4s, just less room. i want to get a gt28 for my next setup. they are all over ebay.
it was from the apr kit for stage 3 1.8t audi/vw
we thought the turbo was to blame for smoke but it turns out its not and this turbo is fine.
can you rebuild these?
7. Be prepared to get a new clutch to hold the torque.
8. New engine mounts all around, engine tranny and rear, do not skip this. see post 7, ask me how i know.
9. enjoy your third gear wheel spin and realize you're in a car never designed for that much power.
1. i want to get some better pipe from the turbo to the IC, i should have reworded it
2.thats the spacer i was looking for but could not find, thanks.
3.i have 500psi SS lines from jegs, i just need what ever size fittings the turbo has.
4. i wanted to get Jak to tune, i have water/meth and i could send it back for retunes for cheap. im not a fan of sqr and thats all thats around me. or i was thinking to get a mail box tune and then change what i need to.
5. i was going to go with the big ones Jak has.
6.I have no a/c so i think it might work. would it really suck shut?
7. i have a spec stage 3, i hope it holds
8.i have polly mounts all around.
9. i think someone said traction was over rated
do you have the spacer from GS?
on the intake i was going to have a 2.75 90* to pipe then a 90* to the intake like you have it, that should be fine right? did you have to do something with yours?
i do not think i have one unless it is in the turbo already (look at the pictures)
i was going to get it because on that site it says its a must with the gt turbos.
i went and got the turbo today, it does not look like i can reclock the turbo with the wastegate setup it has now. its not a big deal i want to get new pipe from the turbo to the IC anyways. i thin im going to come off the turbo with a 2" to 2.5" adapter and go 2.5 to the inter cooler. the other way would be keep it 2" to the intercooler and the putting the 2-2.5 adapter. it shouldnt matter.
well i just ordered all this. which came out to be about the same it would have cost to get a td04 18t. so i got all this stuff plus a gt28 for that price of a 18t, im glad i waited.
i should have all that by the end of the week, then ill lay it all out to see what im missing and then get some more. im going to get a tune and then injectors. i cant wait.
i dont really want to take it all apart to do a trial fit because i use it almost everyday and it would be a paint to take it all out and put it back before work.
and the part number is...

You got bent over on the prices of that stainless elbow.
Always look on Ebay for piping, which you can sometimes find cheaply from places that do dairy or microbrewery fabrication. I bought five or six 90s and 45s for $10 each, about $13-14 with shipping.
Silicone truck radiator hose is a great alternative to expensive couplers. It's three or four ply, with excellent burst strength and heat resistance, and you can buy 3-4 feet of it for $30-40

bolts are fine right? i think it would make it easier to take things off and on with bolts and not studs.
