Thanks Guys!!

I though I was in big trouble when I first started it up. The oil pressure looked a little low and I looked under the hood and had oil squirting out of the turbo feed line, I had for gotten to tighten it and it was only finger tight. Lost about a quart of oil all over the pass side of the motor. Tightened it up and filled it back up with oil and oil pressure was still low and DROPPING! I was like WTF ??? Motor sounded good and wasn't knocking, so started feeling around at the back of the blower and sure enough, I broke the oil pressure sender. That sucker is RIGHT up against the blower, I'm not sure how I'm gonna be able to change it... BC???

That sucker is a tight fit! I had to cut a bunch of stuff off the accs bracket just to get it to drop in there, I really don't want to pull it back off,

Congrats Kyle! That should prove to be a lot of fun! Anxiously waiting pics and vids. Don't change anything just yet until your finished tuning and breaking it in. I'd like to see and read comparisons from the smaller turbo to the larger one and how it feels.
congrats again.
