Yes the Lipp boss turbo is a direct bolt on for the stock manifold, and exhaust. You will be very pleased if you get the boss turbo. Expensive.. but well worth it.
Some day down the road when i get the money i would love to go FFIM. Especialy with this turbo :D
As for the relocation of the power stearing res. I simply got 2 longer hoses and routed it to the back on the firewall. it actualy looks really good. Now that the Res. is out of the way i plan...
Here are some more pictures you've all been waiting for!
Heres matt trying to find a way to give me rod knock :P JK Matt and Jason did a great job on the swap. We really didn't run into many problems. The biggest problem we had was at the end when we started it up it was leaking...
Thanks figgie for backing that up.
Yes noah i got the Lipp boss brand new :) and i thought about other turbos, but at this point im glad i didn't choose any other turbo. Like Jeff (boostlee) said this turbo pulls as hard if not harder than what a GT40 feels like. Once it hits 4k rpms its...

i have mine gapped to .028 i'v alwasy been told if your running higher boost the plugs should be gapped down some, other wise the spark can be blown out. so im guessing if your plugs were at .040 then they might have just been missing. try gapping them down to where they should be and see...
well i cant take any pictures till tonight, im no where near my car or the shop where the work is taking place. sorry guys you'll have to wait for pics :P
:D thanks, i knew there had to be some support out there! lol... ya the lipp turbo's are amazing but are really expensive. So i guess thats where people stear away from them. But thats one of the main reasons i got one cause they are amazing turbo's and you dont see very many on the MK3s. They...
