Whats needed for TT Install?

I think you pretty much got all the necessities. I am actually running the OEM motor/tranny mounts as well as rear diff bushings... I won't bother to change them out

I think you pretty much got all the necessities. I am actually running the OEM motor/tranny mounts as well as rear diff bushings... I won't bother to change them out until I need to.

Gauges are your preference... I actually ran gaugeless for a while and now I only have a boost gauge. I don't run a boost controller either... my kit has small internal wastegates and they are maxed out as it is. This really depends on your power goals.

You should definitely look into Ecutek over Uprev. It is far superior in every single way, aside from not being able to tune it yourself.... but of course that might be limited to what is available in your area. Making sure you pick a good tuner that has experience with this platform is THE MOST IMPORTANT THING. SpecialtyZ does offer remote Ecutek tuning and some folks have gone with that option since he is a known commodity and has an excellent track record... But that process seems to take a long time.

One thing you may consider is putting the clutch/flywheel/CSC on first so you can break it in before the turbo kit... It could be challenging to tune if you are still in the breakin period.

Hope this helps! There is a lot of good information on the forum if you search around.

Edit: Forgot one thing! If the kit doesn't come with it, you'll probably need an oil cooler. I don't personally run one, but I run the Gamma oil pan which is a big aluminum heatsink and increases the capacity by a couple of quarts as well. No problems with it even in the florida heat, but I also do not track the car. I personally think this pan is a highly underutilized option... it also has TT oil return ports built in, and I don't need to fumble with oil cooler block off plates in the winter. The one drawback is that changing the oil filter is a little messy.
