Just found your video tonight and wished I had found it a few months ago, could have been way more helpful than the help I started with. To start off, I had never done a turbo setup before but had bought everything up to do my 1.6L Civic so I would have a better idea of what to do before starting on my 93 240SX. I have had always done all my own work and with the 240 being my fav, I was going to make sure I knew what I was doing and everything be perfect on it. Well a friend came over one night and told me I should do the kit on my Accord and that he knew everything and that it would only take a couple days at max to finish. I had no reason not to believe him because I had seen a few of his turbo cars including his imported monster 97 Supra, so we started tearing it apart. Long story short, he only had a small idea of what a turbo even was and after trying to start the Accord with all the half A$$ work done, it kept spraying oil everywhere because of him not doing anything right. Then he started destroying parts. First a hole in the radiator then killing 3 oil feed lines along with 2 soldering irons while extending a couple sensors. After finally having enough and needing the car to work, I told him I would do it all myself. After I started, I found that I had to redo everything he had even touched. I'm at the point where I am adding all fluids and finishing up some vacuum lines. I went all OCD on it and it's not only going to be turbocharged, it's a beautiful work of art. I told my story because I don't want anyone falling into a trap like I did. If you don't know what to do, watch a video like this before doing anything. It not only will save you time, but possibly a crazy amount of money. Thanks for the video and I hope it helps people that are not quiet sure of what their doing turn into turbocharging tuner pro's. I wish everyone the best of luck on any project they are on. I may make a video showing my install.
