Hopefully my turbo will get here this week, ordering everything else i need, this weekend and hope to have it finished before july first. Depending on travel time for my parts i should be in business in a week or so. And im down for extra hands.:beer:

Extra hands would have been nice for me but everybody was "scared" of doing something wrong. I just said whatever and did everything by myself in my driveway. From the fuel pump, k member, a arms, coilovers, to the turbo. Now that was exhausting. Im glad you have people here to help you out man, i know i would if i lived close by :beer:

I can't imagine doing the install alone. My brother has done all of the install with me and I deff don't think I could do it by myself

If you work under the car alone you have 100% chance of dropping everything on your head, with just one friend that changes to 50/50, which is much better :thumbsup:

Did you have to buy new struts to install, or just the k member kit/c.caster plates?

Your stock struts are fine. You just need the c/c plates if you havnt ordered them yet. I've heard of horror stories about one pot hole making the strut go through the hood.

I have UPR c/c plates with my coil overs up fron and a pot hole bent my strut tower and c/c plate all up. So i wouldnt doubt that could be true
