Thanks Steve I can't wait!! I'm going to start tearing my car down in the next couple days haha.

Bucket I talked to Chris he said that basically any oil is fine. Ill be running motorcraft 5w-20. For a little more safety ill be throwing in some 1 step colder spark plugs also.

TR6s. I have a TVS blower in my trailblazer and I'm running colder plugs in it as well. In boss it's 5w50... May just run that.

Thanks for info. I'm trying to find some way to weigh the car around me to do a before/after install.

The wait is killing me as well, wanting to start tearing into it as well. I feel your pain!

5w-20=:xpl:Especially Motorcraft.. Run Amsoil signature series 5w-30 or 0w-30. 5w-20 is all politics so ford can meet government CAFE standards.

Just trying to give some friendly advice. Check out the greasy spoon section of the forum, you will learn a lot about motor oil. Start a thread and ask which is the best oil to run in a twin turbo 5.0. Unleashed beast and jimmy sidecar will inform you of what's best. Sid runs Royal purple HPS 5w-30 in the supercharged svtp 2012 Mustang gt.

Ok quick update. I got my whole car torn down and ready for the kit. Pulled off LT's headers and x pipe, CAI And front bumper. Installed 1 step colder plugs. I did this yesterday. My LT's and x pipe are for sale in the market if any off you are interested. I'm thinking with already having my exhaust off and all that I've done I knocked a good 3 hours or so off the install.

Anyways I got my tracking info this morning and its saying the turbo kit itself from hellion should be here Thursday next week. Hellion told me that the BOV and waste gates are drop shipping from turbosmart and turbos are drop shipping from precision. Im waiting on tracking numbers for those two places. So everything in some way or another should be here by Friday. Install will be started next Saturday and hopefully finished up on Sunday.
