Bet boosted has this thing at the dyno already LOL!

Well, turbos on many OEM applications are protected by splash plates. I am not worried about the turbo rusting away or anything, merely a curiosity. Plus, the SS hotsides are much lighter, which is nice, particularly where you have pipes supporting part of the turbo's weight. Anyway, based on BP's response, looks like it's not even an option here.

The heat alone will prevent the housing from rusting, it may develope a bit of surface corrosion but that is as far as it will go.

I think there are Tial Sport SS hotsides available for a broader range of Garrett turbos: link

In theory, even less exhaust back-pressure since the exhaust that bypasses the turbo gets vented to atmosphere rather than back into the exhaust system. However, I have to believe that for most street applications, the performance difference is nominal.

Thank you. This project is now complete so there probably won't be any more pictures, although I took a lot more than I posted. This thread will be a good source for DIY installs.

The turbo will not be shipped from me. It will come direct from my supplier, along with the fuel pump, UpRev, Intercooler, BOV's, waste gates, and injectors. This saves you guys about $250 as I would have to pay for the items to ship here, and then back across the border. It is also cheaper to do this in the U.S than here.

The only thing that I'm worried about is the demon bolt which I put TP's on so not to worried about that and putting in the fuel pump and injectors

it really isnt that hard to get off, just get some extentions and take your time on it, pb blaster it a few days before you do it and it should come off easy.

The waste gates are recirculated. I was wondering if there will be an open dump pipe option. Or is there a way to simply cap off the hole on the down pipe and leave the waste gates open.

The recirculation will the options, and open dump will be standard. It is a real PITA to recirculate, and it will cost more to do it, hence it being an option.

Just get your kitty (eavater) to do it.

Injectors are very easy to do, you just make sure to put some clean oil on your finger tip, and lube the rings before sliding them in to the rail, and back on the car. They slip right in there.

Boosted will you offer the kit without the fuel pump, injectors, and uprev liscense in a "tuner" kit for people that would rather source there own different components or already have an uprev lisc.?

Yes, there will be a tuner version available for sure.
