Didn't say anything about using one, I just linked what I figured Dzel was talking about. Only car I've seen use them was my friends twin turbo Ford GT....

The car is now ready to go, just need the base map for the 750cc injectors (should be in today).

This is what things look like before the car is back on the ground;

Turbo with filter before install:

Up there:

O2 Sensors are in:

I use an oil reservoir on the turbo drain, this is a stainless 1" square tube sleeved so it can never leak. This allows the oil inside the turbo to drain, so it does not leak past the seals while the car is off, in turn, it will never smoke.

These are the only things that did not go back on the car, aside from the crash bar:

Does the picture of the O2 sensors installed show both upstream O2s in the same side pipe or is one an upstream factory O2 and the other an aftermarket wideband?

These are post cat sensors from both banks. Since these are narrow band, and only there for emission, it does not matter that they are on the same bank.

Oh duh. Brain fart about the upstreams being in the oe manifold.

Shouldn't I get the trophy? I am the artist here...it's always the drivers that get the glory...:mad:

And James was worried about servicing that transmission. The drain plug is visable with no obstructions. And it looks as if there is enough room to reach to the top of the transmission.

Piece of cake!
