    Just wanted to know, because a friend may be getting a turbo kit in the near future, and I'd like to help install it.

    Its not that hard if you have all the right tools. You need to plan. I think I planned so well that I only made one run to the autoparts store.
    I did my 1st turbo install on my car about a month ago. It was a fun weekend.

    installing a turbo is a piece of cake. The only thing that you might need help is tapping the oil line. If you do it install, just get the moroso oil pan (since you saved money on installation). Everything is bolt on, very straight foward.
