Default Turbo Installing tips??

Ok I hav a cheep crappy turbo kit sitting in the shed... The other day when I was giving the fairmont a service I was think how hard would it b it install it on the EL...

I need to know where I would hook up the oil line for the turbo?? Also the kit has 2 injectors which need to b hooked up. So how can I do that?? the intercooler I can work out and put on slowly... but in the mean tim I'll like to know what I'm in for, and if I need to get any other parts...

pics would b grate too...

Thanx...

I pretty much started out the same as you a year ago, and I'm still trying to get it running right! It's come along way though.

What kind of turbo/manifold/wastegate have you got, and how much boost do you plan to run?

As for your questions, the oil feed can be tee-d in to the oil pressure sensor port. For the two injectors I'd recommend something like a Microfueller, but if you want to stay on the cheap route wire in a Hobbs switch or similar. You may also need a rising rate reg. to ramp up the fuel pressure a tad on boost. You'll get tired of driving it like that pretty quick, it'll run like a bag and drink through the juice.

The turbo is an 'air research' turbo... The mainfold is 1 of the first made by snort, so its nothing like the 1's they hav now... In the futher I would b looking a upgrading the stock injector when I get a uni chip or someother ecu controler... as for boost I would like to run about 6 - 8. I don't want to get silly with it...

Do u hav diagram on how to hook up the injectors???

Thanx
