Installing Turbo

Lets get this part over even I don’t recommend it first, but I know your going to do it anyway. Bolt the DX manifold to the turbo adapter plate with the large opening facing the manifold. Don’t forget to use the steel gasket between the two for expansion. Tighten the bolts down. The plate can be in any rotation except upside down. As you look at the manifold with the exhaust ports facing away from you the turbo inlet will be on the right and the exhaust on the left. Next, bolt the turbo to the plate using the other steel gasket supplied in the kit and tighten it down. Install your new exhaust manifold gaskets to the head studs that hold the exhaust manifold. Make sure you have a rag or paper towel placed in the inlet and outlet of the compressor so no debris can fall in the turbo. With your car on jack stands lie under the car with the turbo on your chest. Raise the turbo and manifold up between the radiator and the block. Work it up and hang it on the heads exhaust manifold studs. It should hang their now. From above install the manifold nuts and tighten down.
