Well prepped the turbo for install yeterday... took off the FP oil feed line and cleaned it out, changed the FP inline filter, installed new crush washers and rerouted the oil feed line where I wanted it to be. Good thing I took a look at the turbo before install, as it had no compressor housing/j-pipe gasket installed, and I had a spare so that was installed. The wastegate was also improperly pre-loaded so that was also fixed, along with a new OEM Clevis pin key for the turnbuckle. The O2 hosuing bolts were a tad loose, so tightened those as well...

Yesterday I finally had time to install new cam seals and new valve cover my buddy powder coated for me a few weeks back... You can also see my evoX battery relocate fuse block set up as well... Looks pretty stock
Still have timing belt service to complete and tranny, t-case & rear diff fluid to change, but it has been chilly, and I don't like rolling around on the cold concrete...
New tires will be here Monday as well...

This past weekend I replaced the tranny, t-case and rear diff fluid, it definitely needed it... Waiting on a few new OEM parts from STM as well... mainly little stuff like new rubberized washers for the valve cover, OEM timing tensioner, and other small items...
