On a turbo budget build so I'm pulling the motor myself to save some money. I just had the AC done so I pulled the motor with out pulling the AC compressor. Unfortunately after I got the motor out I noticed my AC compressor had a broken mounting tab. I'll have to pull it anyway and weld it back on. I'll also make a build thread soon

I got the whole kit for $1400 so I went for it. I think when the car is finished Ill start to think about upgrading to a more suitable turbo, manifold, and hot side piping but for now the turbo and parts are mint

Will do, I want to start a build thread but want to wait until my build actually gets moving. I'm just saving for a few more internal parts I need then ill drop the motor off to be built.
