* Does this kit require any type of welding? Once I had a GReddy turbo kit on a different car and I had to get the BOV mount TIG welded to the pipe. Not a big deal, just curious.

* Is it possible to see the install documents? I like to get a better understanding of what I'm getting into with your kit before committing. Based on your other install guides, I'm very impressed; it's in color! I'm not used to that, haha.

* Since this is water-cooled, how does it source, tapping into the radiator piping? I like the provided oil pan with it integrated so that's great if I read that correctly. I think that's more reliable than the adapter kind that's 'piggy-backing' the oil drain bolt.

* I've never dealt with a water/oil cooled turbo. What's the life expectancy of these turbo seals compared to the standard oil cooled ones?

* Are there any other factory hosing or wiring that I need to be concerned about post installation from being too close to the hot side of the turbo housings and piping? I tend to wrap any in heat reflectors so I'm just checking!

* Are the BOVs negotiable in type even if paying the difference? It might be weird to some but I'm particular about the sound, chirping, or whatever. I don't like attracting attention.

* Is the oil cooler you sell (Item # GTM-00115-03-19M) fully compatible to this kit?

Thanks in advance!
OK. Here is the install manual http://www.gtmotorsports.com/Manuals...structions.pdf
you will not have to tap the oil pan so ignore that part.
No welding etc. Just go through the install manual and you should get a good idea.
You will need to buy and oil cooler and plugs. You also have the options of an internal or external waste gates. Go through some of the earlier posts. This should get you at least started.
